It was also Covid related, turns out if you have a bad ticker you are at risk,
I work at a hospital and I have been hearing the war stories of some of the clients there.

Comic Actor Fred Willard Dead at 86: ‘We Loved Him So Very Much,’ Says Daughter

EDIT: OK, a bunch more people recently died:

Actor Jerry Stiller, known for roles in "Seinfeld" and "The King of Queens" and father to Ben Stiller, died May 11. He was 92.
I honestly thought he had died a couple years ago. Now I wonder who I got him mixed up with.

Little Richard, the screaming, preening, scene-stealing wild man of early rock 'n' roll with hits like "Tutti Frutti" and "Long Tall Sally," died May 9. He was 87.

Brian Dennehy, the winner of two Tonys in a career that also spanned films including “Tommy Boy,” “First Blood” and “Cocoon,” and television, died April 15. He was 81.

Naaa, Gehtfuct is maybe some pantywaist right winger who is a lover of McConnell and Trumps tactics, and writes sissy ass plays for the lonely hearts club gatherings,
and to top off his great wonderings, he probably has very tiny testicles.
