That's an odd emoticom to use! His Ebeneezer Scrooge was, I think, the best rendition of all of them.

Bummer ... RIP. I've only had limited experience (2000 and 2005) but was blown away each time I'e had it.

Sad. We met him and his daughter in 2004 when we visited the estate. We barrel tasted the 2003, 2002 and 2000 vintages - was a pleasure

Yes, he is the 2nd of the quartet to go. Two more and the Monkees will be extinct.
The song "I wanna be free" from the 1966 album incorporated a string quartet. The cello solo is really nice.

Maybe the two remaining Beatles and Monkeys should team up
Jim B The head coach of Syracuse basketball was involved in a tragic death on the interstate in Syracuse after last nights game. Very sad situation. He swerved to miss a broken down car in the interstate and hit the driver outside the car.
Keith Flint front man of The Prodigy. Suicide at age 49. Everyone of a certain age will be a twisted firestarter today.
Kevin Roche. I admired his architecture a great deal.
RIP.

Yeah dying from a stroke at 52 is the type of thing you heard about 50 years ago, not now. Scary.

My father-in-law died at 52 from a stroke. But that was in 1985. Weird to think I'm older than him now.
Carmine "The Snake" Persico. Former head of the Colombo mafia family. Age 85. (Not sure RIP is the right place for him)
