Not to be insensitive, but people seem to be dropping like flies. Yes, tons of people pass away on a daily basis so this isn’t anything special. Within the past week four people that live in the spotlight have passed away. These aren’t just mildly famous people, but ones that have become household names.
I’d like to take a moment to honor these people.

You all touched our lives in some way or another. Each one of the individuals are icons in their own right, household names, and have embedded themselves into pop culture. You will be sorely missed.
