The CNN article is long, detailed, but omits mention of any of Larry King's children. Sort of strange. It used to be when someone famous died, you could turn on CNN and Larry King Live and he would have interviewed that person.

He certainly lived a troubled life. Seemed a lot older than 44.

Hard to know if it was fast or just very advanced when it was diagnosed.

So sad about Hal Holbrook. Got to see him do Mark Twain Tonight at the Kennedy Center in Washington, DC some 30 years ago. One of the best shows I have ever seen. RIP fine sir.

So sad and a pox on whoever convinced him to travel, unless he decided that it was worth taking the chance.

The problem for people in their 90’s (much less 100) is realistically they only have so much time left to enjoy their life. Deciding not to travel or see family for an extended period isn’t an easy decision.

Not all old people are frail and sickly. I go out to the grocery store and stores like Target. I friend and I go out to lunch every couple weeks. (She did come down with Covid, but is better now) I am wondering what kids think when they are told they cannot go anywhere because they might make gramma sick. What if a kid gets mad at gramma because of that.
