This is my list. Plus Princess Dianna, Elvis, Lennon. I’m old. |
| John Kennedy Jr.'s death upset me because it had the uneasy "not again" feeling of Kennedy family deaths. |
| Anthony Bourdain for me. I felt incredibly sad when I learned about his death and the nature of it. |
|
Princess Diana
Ronald Reagan Michael Jackson Robin Williams Tim Russert And in retrospect, Freddie Mercury. If his AIDS diagnosis had been 5 years later, there’s a good chance Freddie would still be alive. |
These. It was like the death of my childhood, launching me to adulthood, whether I wanted it or not. |
|
Kind of random but
Prince Ethel from I Love Lucy River Phoenix David Bloom Brandon Lee Princess Diana |
|
None of the above.
They're public figures, not people I'm emotionally invested in. |
|
Bill Paxton
Chadwick Boseman |
|
Kobe Bryant hit me the hardest...I think because of his daughter and the other families on the helicopter as well.
Anthony Bourdain is a close 2nd. JFK Jr has always stuck with me. |
|
^^^ adding Steve Irwin, Kate Spade (both shocking for different reasons)
Alex Trebek Princess Diana |
| I was shocked and saddened by some of the premature deaths, but only wept when RBG died. |
| Anthony Bourdain. I don’t know why it affects me so deeply but it hurts to think of him. When he died I just decided to stop watching television altogether. I’m not sure if I was protesting or what...but I still haven’t gone back to it. |
