Kurt Cobain. I was a freshman in high school and just loved Nirvana.

Recently, it was Anthony Bourdain. I was a big fan of his show.

Ultimate Warrior. Hear me out- Died just after being inducted to the WWE Hall of Fame and appearing on Raw after years of being away. He had one last chance to make peace with his contemporaries and then died hours later.

Waking up to being told Anthony Bourdain committed suicide was probably the most memorable of any.

Chris Farley was devastating.



Merle and Cash. When Willie goes, it’ll feel like a door has officially slammed shut. I like to hope he goes out Jedi style and fades away in a puff of smoke.

I don't get caught up in stargazing celebrities.

Stuart Scott.

I watched him everynight growing up.

Watching him suffer and fight. Man it hurt.

I think Robin WIlliams made me rethink what I thought I understood about depression and how it silently imprisons some people.

I wasn’t even born when this happened but I’ve always been obsessed with it. Always wondered how the world would be different.

Zero. I'm hit harder by the deaths of the working man. These folks make contributions but are never appreciated.
