Subject: wa-wd.com: Monthly news and list of living octogenarians
WA&WD News – 1 January 2017
- The Yahoo mail system hasn’t been working so great for me lately. I had to
submit most of my mailouts twice this month, and I had to submit one of them
three times, before I could approve them for release. This can cause death
bulletins to take longer than I would like to get to you. Just remember, if you
want to see if I’ve posted a bulletin, you can check the home page of my site,
use an RSS reader, or download the DOADB app for your Google Android phone. All
of these systems get the updates as soon as I post them, without having to go
through Yahoo’s verification process.
- I posted 69 death bulletins in 2016, which is more than usual. We lost some
giants especially in the fields of music (David Bowie, Prince, Merle Haggard)
and sports (Muhammad Ali, Gordie Howe, Arnold Palmer), plus historical figures
including Fidel Castro and John Glenn. A couple of people who a lot of folks
expected would die long ago – Abe Vigoda and Zsa Zsa Gabor – finally did. And
then there was the heartbreaking closeout to the year with the death of Debbie
Reynolds a day after her daughter, Carrie Fisher. You can see the full list at
