re: Have you or anyone you know actually cried over the death of a celebrity?

I dont remember ever crying.

I was waiting tables when Dale Earnhardt died, and several tables in the restaurant had families crying.

I remember friends crying after kurt cobain committed suicide.

I remember getting goosebumps when harry carey, larry munson, and don sutton died. Same for vin scully.
Memories run stronger for me when tied to sounds, smells, etc..

I remember getting pissed off when phil hartman was murdered.
