I read that actress Polly Holiday, perhaps best known as Flo from the 70's sitcom, "Alice," passed away September 9 at the age of 88. Some know her better from "Gremlins."

Singer, songwriter, keyboardist, and Supertramp founder, Rick Davies, passed away at the age of 81' on September 6. Supertramp had a couple of hits before and after 1979 but that year they released "Breakfast in America" which was a huge seller with four Top 10 singles. I remember them well. My next-door neighbor at the time played that album everyday for months. I still have the album that came after that, "...Famous Last Words," on cassette.

1960s movie star Claudia Cardinale has died at 87
In America, she was probably best known for the first "Pink Panther" film (1963) as well as "Once Upon a Time in the West" (1968) with Henry Fonda and Charles Bronson.
30 years later she returned to the franchise in the abysmal "Son of the Pink Panther" (1993) with Roberto BenigniThis message has been edited. Last edited by: Tommy C,

Singer/songwriter Sonny Curtis passed away on September 19 at the age of 88. He was a member of The Crickets, Buddy Holly's band. He wrote "I Fought the Law," which was covered by numerous artists, "Love is All Around (the theme to "The Mary Tyler Moore Show," and co-wrote "More Than I Can Say" (a hit for Leo Sayer).
I read that Curtis also recorded "Love is All Around" for the show. My parents watched it across its run so I remember the opening notes played by an electric guitar (or is that a keyboard made to sound like a guitar?).This message has been edited. Last edited by: catskilleagle,

No one has noted that primatologist, conservationist, and writer, Jane Goodall, passed away October 1 at the age of 91. She was a pioneer in the study of chimpanzee behavior observing that species in the wild across decades.

Actress Pat Crowley passed away on September 14 at the age of 91. She was in several movies in the 50's and 60's and guest-starred on numerous TV shows from the 60's to 2009. I remember her starring in the TV show, "Please Don't Eat the Daisies," which ran from 1965 to 1967. I have no memory of the show during the time it was first run but local stations played re-runs of it from the late 60's to around the mid-70's. She was also part of the revolving panel of celebrities on the game show, "Match Game" during the 70's which I watched a lot.

I also read that actress Danielle Spencer passed away on August 11 at the age of 60. She played little sister, Dee, on the 70's sitcom "What's Happening." I watched that show and remember when the Doobie Brothers appeared in an episode. She later went to college and became a veterinarian.

Oh no, more bad news but this time from the music world. Composer/conductor, Lalo Schifrin, died June 26. He had 4 Grammys and was nominated for 6 Oscars. He wrote the theme song for the TV show, "Mission Impossible." It's a theme song that's impossible to forget.
Mick Ralphs, co-founder of the 70's rock group, Bad Company, passed away June 23 at the age of 81. My brother is a big fan. I still hear a few of their songs on the local classic rock station, KFOX.This message has been edited. Last edited by: catskilleagle,
