    Notable Deaths Of 2012

    I was quite shocked (I didn't know) at some of the people on this list that passed away this past year......

    One they left off was Jonathan Frid. My wife was reading me this list last night and couldn't believe they left him off. Since she was a Dark Shadows fan from way back she would notice that one.

    I'm usually surprised to see deaths of people I thought were already dead.

    Gore Vidal was one I thought had died a long time ago.

    The other day my buddy said he was looking forward to watching Dick Clark on New Year's Eve. I looked at him and said "Are they gonna do a Weekend At Bernie's thingy, because he died."

    I didn't see actor Gary Collins on the list either. He passed away this past October

    Forgot about Collins. I didn't know he had died until the last couple of weeks until my wife mentioned it.
