RIP Jim Neighbors
I tried to embed a video in my 1st post. Now I quoted myself. Let's see if the video shows up.
Can someone check why this is happening?

I knew her from the Dick Van Dyke Show when I was little, but had no idea until fairly recently what and enduring and varied career she'd had. Hey, 2017, can we stop with the deaths now?

Jerry Van Dyke star of Coach, Dick VanDyke's younger brother. He was 86.

Oh damn. Dick Van Dyke, who's still kicking in his 90s, must be having a rough time losing his brother and costar so close to each other.

French singer France Gall, 70, had not known about her until today. I like what I heard on youtube. Her singing is upbeat, infectious, feel good. This song of hers about Ella Fitzgerald is a real gem:
"Ella, elle l'a"

Sorry, Here is clickable link:

Very sorry to hear about Ray. "For My Lady" is one of the most beautiful songs ever written.
"Ray Thomas, a founding member of the protean British rock group the Moody Blues, died on Thursday at his home in Surrey, south of London. He was 76.
His death was announced by his label, Esoteric Recordings/Cherry Red Records. The label did not specify the cause, but Mr. Thomas said in 2014 that he had prostate cancer."

We all remember the Dick Van Dyke Show, but Rose Marie was a child star when she was 5 years old. Her roller coaster career, working with black musicians long before that was allowed, and friendship with the mafia would make a great movie.
Bruce McCandless, the first person to fly freely in space, died December 21.
John Young, the 9th person to walk on the moon and 1st space shuttle commander, died January 5.
Of the 12 men who walked on the moon, only 5 are still alive, and they are all 82-87 years old. -
