We've been listening to Pavarotti all morning. What a loss! Very sad.

I sat and watched him on Youtube all night last night and my youngest fell in love with his voice. She wants us to buy some of his music now. It is really sad.

Wow Maris, I forgot Jodie was on that show.

:-( click here for Miyoshi umeki's bio She was also in Flower Drum Song, but she'll always be Mrs. Livingston to me. Sigh.

click here for the youtube of the opening theme song of The Courtship of Eddie's Father

Of course it's also deeply saddening about Pavarotti too... dh is a HUGE opera buff.

I didn't find out about Pavarotti until mid-day today, but I've pulled out all my CDs and have been celebrating his voice ever since. Even went to Itunes and got "The Ultimate Collection" (40 songs for $20!). His beautiful tenor voice will be singing me to sleep tonight. :-(

I didn't even hear about Miyoshi until reading it here. I loved Courtship of Eddie's Father. It brings back a lot of wonderful memories. Bill Bixby reminds me so much of my wonderful godfather who passed away of AIDS.

Madeleine L'Engle passed away yesterday. I often read her Wrinkle in Time to my students who loved it.

We've lost some dear ones this week.

She was a real lady. It is said that she refused to ever discuss her marriage to Ronald Reagan. When he died, she said that a great and gentle man had passed. She had class. My thoughts are with her son and grandchildren.

Match Game" vet Brett Somers passed away from stomach and colon cancer at her Connecticut home on Saturday. She was 83.

Somers, the grandmother of the Mary-Kate Olsen/Nicole Richie oversized sunglasses trend, was known for her dry wit and humor as one of the celebrity panelists on the memorable '70s game show, which experienced renewed interest in repeats on the Game Show Network.

Ms. Somers married actor Jack Klugman in 1953 and played his ex-wife on the long-running series, "The Odd Couple." Although they separated in 1974, the couple never divorced.

Somers is survived by Klugman, her two sons, Adam and David, and a daughter, Leslie.

Seems like we were just having these conversations, but then we were...back when Charles Nelson Reilly died in May of this year.

Robert Jordan author of the "Wheel of Time" series has died.

http://edition.cnn.com/2007/SHOWBIZ/books/09/17/obit.jordan.ap/

I was lucky enough to meet him twice and hear him talk about his books. My husband and I met and started a friendship that led to dating and marriage through his books. He was so nice to his fans. He even personally replied to a letter my husband wrote to him. This is so sad. :-(

Callasin, we have a thread in the library section, WOT. I'd love to hear about your meetings with Mr. Jordan if you want to share.
