    Thank you for including Thurman Munson. He was my baseball hero during my youth. I was 14 when he died. It broke my heart. I will never forget him. God bless.

    As the decade wound to a close Jack "The Tin Man" Haley and Darla "Our Gang/ The Little Rascals" Hood each slipped quietly away into cinematic immortality. John Wayne. Zeppo Marx. Mary Pickford. So many celluloid luminaries slipped away that year. It almost seems absurd to put Sid Vicious among them all, but, yes, he too is a legend.

    It's always interesting how some of these people were at the end of their natural lifespans, and thus achieved their peak celebrity even decades earlier, and yet I know who they were. And then there are the ones like John Wayne who have been gone for almost 50 years now and yet retain a significant part of their fame and popularity. And then the ones, like Thurman Munson or Sid Viscous, who with a little different luck or life-style, could still be alive all this time later.
