So sad. I was wondering why I hadn't heard an update on his condition lately. His talent will be sorely missed.

Just about a month ago, this story came out: "Mary J. Blige, Mariah Carey and Fantasia are among the artists featured on a new Luther Vandross tribute album, produced by Jimmy Jam and Terry Lewis.

The Clive Davis-orchestrated project is said to be a more literal interpretation of Vandross’ music than the 2004 jazz tribute disc 'Forever, For Always, For Luther.' [...]

Ruben Studdard, Angie Stone and Celine Dion are also tapped for the project."

It's fitting to see Ruben on the project.

I am so so so very saddened by Mr. Vandross' passing. Thank goodness his beautiful voice will live on and one. God truly sent an angel down to earth for all of us to hear when he gave us Luther.

June Haver age 79 was the widow of Fred McMurray, but had an active movie career early on. She was set to become the next big blonde bombshell, that is until Marilyn came along. At that point she went into a convent to become a nun, but returned to Hollywood in about a year. She then met and married Fred and mostly retired to being his wife.

Another oldie, but goodie - FRANCES LANGFORD
She was 91. Frances traveled during WWII with Bob Hope to entertain the troops. She was known as the Sweetheart of the Fighting Fronts.

Thanks for posting the photo of Kevin Hagen.

I went to the dentist today. I took the autobiography of Richard Kiel (Jaws from the James Bond movies). I read the part today where Kiel talks about working with Kevin Hagen, the Doc on Little House.

I couldn't remember what the Doc looked like....and didn't recognize the name. I figured I'd check out InternetMovieDataBase.

Before I had a chance to do so,I check at TVCH and there's a photo posted right here. Coincidence.

As a long time Little House fan, I was sorry to hear of his passing. We've been watching the "early" years DVD (Season 2), and he's on almost every episode.

Actress Geraldine Fitzgerald Dies at 91 link

gerry

Geraldine Fitzgerald, who appeared in such classic 1930s films as "Dark Victory" and "Wuthering Heights" and later had a career on the New York stage, has died after a long battle with Alzheimer's disease. She was 91.

The Irish-born actress received an Academy Award nomination for her performance as Isabella Linton in "Wuthering Heights" (1939), appearing with Laurence Olivier and Merle Oberon in director William Wyler's memorable screen version of the Emily Bronte novel. That same year she also starred with Bette Davis, George Brent and Humphrey Bogart in the popular Hollywood tearjerker "Dark Victory."

Fitzgerald had a tumultuous career at Warner Bros. in the 1940s, refusing roles and being placed on suspension by the studio. Yet during that decade she managed to appear in such films as "Shining Victory" (1942), "The Gay Sisters" (1943), "Watch on the Rhine" (1944) and "Nobody Lives Forever" (1946), a film noir gem which starred John Garfield.

In later years, she appeared as a character actress in such movies as "Ten North Frederick" (1958), "The Pawnbroker" (1965), "Rachel, Rachel" (1968), "Harry and Tonto" (1974), "Arthur" (1981) and "Easy Money" (1983). [...]
