Mitzi Gaynor…RIP.
Mitzi Gaynor, so much talent! My parents had her records. So great in South Pacific.
“As her career was building, Gaynor dated industrialist-studio chief H o w a r d Hughes.
He was dashing, handsome, rich, mysterious, she said. I fell madly in love with him. There were airplanes, a whirlwind courtship and, after five months, he proposed.
She broke it off and instead married Jack Bean, who would become her manager and only husband.

Very sad passing of Liam. He seemed lost, with no one helping to steer him in a positive direction, but plenty of people enabling him.
Fernando Valenezula Dodgers pitcher died yesterday.
This one hits close to home for me. I saw Fernando pitch in a 1981 World Series game against the Yankees. It was 43 years ago today (October 23rd was a Friday evening game). I already called my dad this morning as he is a life long Dodger fan and he was very sad.
RIP Jack Jones
RIP Phil Lesh, co-founder of the Grateful Dead…

She’s always been one of my favorite actors.
I liked Teri Garr a lot. Didn’t realize she was 79 as she always looked 40. Interesting dance history.
Quincy Jones, musician.
Awww, Quincy Jones. What an absolute legacy.
Amazing interview (2018) with him here:
Douglas Brackman - one of my favorite characters EVER
Wow !! Never heard the name. Huge impact in billions of people.
First person I thought of when reading of Quincy’s death was MJ.
