I saw this last night and am heartbroken. Coworkers who knew him said he was a genuinely nice person.

I loved watching Grant and enjoyed his sense of humor.

I corrected the typo of his last name in my post. I only saw it when you quoted my post.

I just read about Grant. So sad. He was one of my favorites on Mythbusters.

I just saw Regis Philbin died. I used to watch Regis & Kathie Lee all the time. When I think of him, I think of how much he loved Bing Crosby. RIP

I had not seen that. Thank you for posting.

Peter Green from Fleetwood Mac passed away. The musician Emitt Rhodes passed away earlier this week.

RIP Regis! I have his workout tape around here somewhere. He was funny and it was a decent workout.

I just saw that John Saxon died. This one breaks my heart. I wrote him a fan letter once and told him I was disappointed in him because when I was little, my plan was to grow up and marry him and he didn’t follow through with my plan. I also said my sister had planned on marrying James Darren and that didn’t work out, either. He wrote me the nicest letter in response apologizing for not marrying me. He included an autographed picture and also included an autographed picture of James Darren for my sister because he felt bad for her, too. 😂. I thought it was really nice of him to respond.

Shoot - Olivia de Havilland died. I had hoped she’d live another 10 years or more.
