More celebrity RIPs

Some of these folks aren’t “celebrities”

I’ve often wondered if these stories shouldn’t be titled “the formerly oldest person”.

I read about the Holocaust survivor. Not sure she is a “celebrity” but so very sorry for her loss. Never heard of these other folks (Alexander, Rodriguez)

Rodriguez was one of my dad’s faves, and my mom got me hooked on the ABC soaps so I also know Alexander as Lesley Webber! Definitely blasts from the past.

Denise Alexander played Lesley Webber on GH. The character is probably better known as the mother of Laura Spencer of “Luke & Laura” fame and as the foster mom of Blackie Parrish - John Stamos’ introduction to fame.

Do you play pub trivia? If not, you should. You’d crush it and earn lots of free food and beverages!

Yep. My first semester at MIT. I lived in a house that had a women’s living group on one side and a fraternity on the other side. The guys went into the basement and tripped the circuit breaker during the broadcast. People were Big Mad.

Again?!? They were at MIT in the '80’s. They were all still waiting for the first. :rofl:

What can I say? I’m a hopeless romantic, which is why I watched Luke and Laura’s wedding on a big screen at Mr. Gatti’s pizza with dozens of people who, like me, scheduled my college courses so that they didn’t conflict with All My Children, One Life to Live or General Hospital and regularly had the lunch buffet special while watching en masse!

I went to a college with a similar student population. You’d be surprised! :smile:
