Oh no, John Herd died! ... He's in his early 70's. He did a great job in Home Alone Movies, loved him in Sharknado, did quite well in CSI Miami playing a lawyer and a Father to Calleigh Duquesne. Great Character ...

Oh no, Stan Lee lost his wife and dear friend in less than a month and he must be heartbroken and this is a blow to him and his friends at Marvel Comics. I met her once at a speaker convention and she is one of the true pioneers for Women in the World of Comics. A fascinating lady and loves talking to people. I could listen to her for hours ... literally! |

My favorite Sam Shepard role was as Chuck Yeager, in The Right Stuff. Really captured the legendary calm of the man and how good of a pilot he was.
Meanwhile, the world of cinema has also lost French actress and icon Jeanne Moreau, of Jules & Jim, the Lovers; and, later, La Femme Nikita. My first exposure was Nikita, where she plays the older agent who mentors Nikita and teaches her to use her femininity as a weapon, which also opens her up to find love. It's a small role; but, she commanded the screen in their scenes.
(Kirby, I love that film!)
