2024’s Notable & Celebrity Deaths: The Year In Memoriam

[@DianeHobbs-op4ym]

We lost a lot of notable people in 2024. May they all rest in peace 🙏🏽 ❤

[@bethanyhanna9464]

2024 was a really rough year, so many icons. I've appreciated your respectful, accurate dedication to each and every passing.

[@DoubleHeader97]

Leap years are rough when it comes to celebrity deaths.

[@LaraFabans]

I remember last week, you were talking about people who pass away on the last day of the year and that's why you wait a few days. Sure enough. RIP president Carter. And thanks for telling such wonderful stories about people.

[@LaVanderWilliams62]

Wow. Now I understand why last week was short. You had a great deal of work to do . May they all R.I.P. And thank you Legacy for bringing us together to mourn those who were a part of our lives.

[@SanFernandoValleyRose]

I am going on 79, and I remember almost 99 % of those who passed in 2024. Life has been enriched for those of us who remember all of these talented people who entertained us through the years and we never forget their memorable music, movies, TV shows, sporting wins, and political achievements. But life does go on and will go on long after we are all gone for we are just a blip in the passage of time. I hope everyone here will continue to enjoy life to the fullest and as Jerry Springer would say "Take care of yourselves and each other."

[@carastone3473]

I'll be 60 later this year and I feel the same way.

[@NiqueSmith]

I just turned 61 on 10/26/2024.

[@margareteplaetzer3127]

76 me too

[@christiancastro2442]

RIP to all that passed ! Now quincy jones hit me hardest as a good music lover !!

[@janeleekeller]

@SFVR Just entered 78 on December 16th. Time certainly seems to go faster with every passing year. Everyone gets their turn no matter how long or short. I hear that Jerry Springer quote frequently, via a You Tuber by the name of "Flossy Carter". Take care Rose 🌹 JaneLee Keller - in Suburban Philadelphia 1/4/25

[@RichardShindawakei]

Thank you 'Legacy' for bringing the TRUTH. You are the ONLY TRUE site that HONESTLY discusses, with full respect and dignity, the deaths of those who passed.

[@jaylene.turner6524]

R.I.P. to all who have passed in 2024.🙏🏾

[@gailhoffmann9498]

Thank you Legacy for the yearly recognition. RIP to all. ❤✌🙏

[@nikkiphelps]

As a lifelong boy band fan, I was completely shocked by Liam Payne's death the most. I'm 32 years old and a true fan of One Direction having been to their concerts and loving their music. I still share my stories about their concerts every year. My favorite memory of one of those concerts was when Liam pointed at me after Harry waved at me.

[@anthonywilson107]

Add My Father to that list. In my eyes, he was the most important one! Rest Well Dad!!

[@amanda69]

I'm so sorry for your loss, may Yahweh give you peace.

[@leesashriber5097]

Definitely a sad year. May all be at eternal rest and peace. What a beautiful compilation. 🕊️❤️🙏

[@NiqueSmith]

Those people who passed away in 2024 will be remembered. May those people Rest in Paradise.

[@BadAcid999]

Teri Garr hit me the hardest. She really lit up the screen in all her roles. RIP, Teri.

[@DavidMitchell-j3c]

R.I.P to all who have died in 2024! 😢😢😢😢

[@michellelogreco3351]

Love the Legacy channel 🙏🏻♥️

[@frazzledhaloz3184]

James Earl Jones hit the hardest this year! His voice was ICONIC!

[@robertdragoff6909]

You left out that he was the voice of CNN.

[@_AwesomeRabbit10000-]

You said it man.

[@joshuabrooks4907]

R. I. P. to everyone who passed away in 2024.

[@weatherboi]

Great job in putting this wonderful memorial together.

[@jovarp03orion77]

Excellent 56 minutes you gave us......have a great new year Linnea & Stephen.

[@Arche_TheP0ny]

Thank you for these video's keep them up rest in peace to all these people

[@SallyKohorst]

Boy that was a long list of people that were lost. May they all RIP.

[@oshtoolman]

Another perfectly done episode. I really appreciate the way you tell the stories of people.

[@bernadettegraffeo2843]

RIP to all those who have passed and condolences to their families and friends...thank you for the memories ❤

[@blueStarKitt7924]

Once again, it was respectful and moving. Great job, Legacy team and Happy New Year 2025!❤❤❤

[@AgentGibbs]

We lost many of the legendary actors and actresses in 2024.

[@sandyg.3454]

This was an impressive group of so many talented people that passed away in 2024! I am 68 years old and I remember so many of these Actors, Actresses, Athletes, Poet, Politicians etc. I’m also shocked by some of the deaths because I didn’t know. Rest in Peace All.🙏🏽🕊️

[@pixieanna2058]

Johnny Wactor was left out. He was on General Hospital and was murdered May 25th in Los Angeles.

[@wendywright4397]

You two are absolutely the best in honoring the lives of those who have passed. This year end video was no exception, very well done. Thank you for your weekly submissions and have an amazing 2025.

[@elainewatson756]

Ethel Kennedy passed October 09, 2024 from a stroke at the age of 96.

[@LaVanderWilliams62]

There are many that were missed, probably because there were so many people passing this year.

[@elainewatson756]

I don't think she, nor the other two, were not included for any nefarious reasons. It was probably just an oversight.

[@gianbasye8173]

Maggie Smith She is THE Greatest Best PROFESSOR MCGONAGALL

[@michaelhatfield3430]

We lost so many Iconic Entertainer's in 2024. May they all Rest In a peace

[@aspieatheist6040]

This is really the best compilation like this for 2024 that I've seen. It hits the high points with only major celebrities while still being very comprehensive. It contains information about all the celebrities as well.

[@TheDetroitblack]

Melanie was known for her song "LAY DOWN CANDLES IN THE RAIN" one of my favorite songs,such an amazing spirit and great artist,she shall be sorely missed💔🙏🏿

[@matthewdrummond1340]

There's an amazing video of her covering Jimi Hendrix too 🙂

[@neonh161]

Some big names in 2024 RIP to all 🙏

[@TheDetroitblack]

Shannon was a dear friend of mine....I remember her from laughing so much on little house on the prairie,She was an amazing lil girl then and she'll be remembered the same💔🙏🏿

[@sarahjoines9343]

Rip into all and to the osmund brother

[@blueStarKitt7924]

RIP to all who left this life in 2024.😢😔🙏

[@Vet-7174]

RIP to all that passed.

[@carastone3473]

RIP to all these wonderful people who brought us joy over the years.

[@brentleyroyals3032]

So many wonderful memories of the amazing people we lost in 2024. Rest In Peace to all.

[@jonathanheredia7850]

You forgot Rachael Lillis. She was the best English Dub anime as Misty, Jessie and Jigglypuff from “Pokémon” series starting 1998 to 2006, she’s also voiced Martina from “Slayers NEXT”and many more. She died August 10 after battling Breast Cancer at the age of 55.

[@northstarpokeshipper2148]

Yeah. What makes me Misty most of all, in her final curtain call, is knowing that I won’t see her again.

[@jonathanheredia7850]

@ I guess you’re right.

[@AgentGibbs]

This is showing the most notable deaths of 2024 so everyone is not shown here.

[@robertpalmer5599]

Thank you for all your hard work. So much appreciation. Love your channel❤

[@todaydepartedstars]

R.I.P. to all who have passed in 2024

[@DejohnaeWalker-u6c]

I've been waiting for the 2024 year in memoriam tribute for hours. You two did a wonderful job. I can't wait for the 2025 year in memoriam.

[@LQOTW]

Great presentation, guys. So many on the list!

[@chrismcevoy2503]

I loved Shelley Duvall as Olive Oyl in Popeye.

[@NathanArnoldCharging]

Back in '82, Nicolas Pryor played Shannon Doherty's father in the 2-part season premiere of "Little House On The Prairie" - one of Shannon's first TV roles. Who knew back then that they'd not only go the same year - but just a few months apart.

[@TheDetroitblack]

Shannon was a very good friend of mine I met her when she was 13 years old on the set of Little House on the prairie we shared lots of laughter❤

[@NathanArnoldCharging]

@TheDetroitblack That's awesome! She seemed like a pretty cool chick.. I mean she was in a Slaughter video lol.. can't get more rad than that! : )

[@nancyomalley6286]

Pryor was also in the beginning of the Weird Al video "Like A Surgeon" where Al punched him back to life😊

[@NathanArnoldCharging]

@@nancyomalley6286 Hell yeah! He was also the 2nd cup of coffee dad in "Airplane!" - which is, imho, the greatest movie ever made! "Jim never has a 2nd cup at home". lol

[@goldeniconstv]

Rip all, 2024 has truly been a difficult year, with the loss of so many remarkable icons. I’ve greatly valued your respectful and thoughtful tributes to each of those who have passed.

[@ernestcruz6316]

RIP Wayne Osmond, who died of a stroke on New Year's Day 2025.

[@sum1has2]

Thank you for your extensive and respectful work. ✨

[@chrismcevoy2503]

I loved Shannen Doherty on Beverly Hills 90210.

[@MaryCochrane]

Thank You. Love from Ontario, Canada ❤❤❤

[@charles-y2z6c]

Greatest respect for Lieberman. He chose country over party politics when he disagreed with Al gore on military preparedness on meet the press in 2000

[@gugurupurasudaikirai7620]

Jimmy Carter was the last remaining surviving former president I am not going to have a tasteless joke queued up for when he goes. He actually seemed like a decent person as a person at least

[@maryrosekent8223]

Jimmy Carter was a good and decent man, and the best ex-president this country has ever seen.

[@DejohnaeWalker-u6c]

Thank you for the year in memoriam tribute for who died in 2024. R.I.P. them all.

[@AmandaPanda2.0]

thank you for this,happy new year

[@craigbrown9029]

Thank you for this great series. Best wishes for the New Year. Cheers from Down Under.

[@GNXXRAY]

That list had some greats… James Earl Jones and a few others. I’ll miss Maggie Smith the most as my daughter and I are tremendous Harry Potter fans. RIP to all.

[@maryrosekent8223]

I fell in love with Maggie Smith after seeing her in _The Prime of Miss Jean Brodie._

[@RichardRoeder-p4e]

So many people have come and gone to soon Wayne osmand jimmy Carter God bless them all May they rest in peace ❤😂😢 I love you so much your 1 fan for life

[@corybeaver1909]

Wow! We're already halfway through January & I'm just now getting around to watching the 2024 year in review. We lost so many people in 2024 but the one that shocked me the most was Toby Keith especially after hearing a positive progress report on his treatments near the end of 2023. I found out a month or two after his passing that he made the decision to stop his cancer treatments

[@lvleclat]

Wow. Didn't realize how many we lost in 2024. RIP those taken over the years 🕊

[@DejohnaeWalker-u6c]

But still you guys did a fab job with 2024 year in memoriam tribute. The celebrity deaths that hit me hard in 2024 was Chita Rivera, Carl Weathers, Donald Sutherland, Shelley Duvall, Shannon Doherty, Phil Donahue, O.J. Simpson, James Earl Jones, Liam Payne, Chuck Woolery, Maggie Smith, Quincy Jones, Tito Jackson, Cissy Houston, Richard Simmons and 39th President Jimmy Carter. Those are the only deaths that hit me hard in 2024.

[@jontaylor6068]

Britt Allcroft, who made Thomas and Friends, passed away in December in 2024

[@northstarpokeshipper2148]

Her death was just announced today. And she didn’t create Thomas and Friends (The Rev. W. Audry did), but she DID bring the stories to television.

[@jontaylor6068]

@northstarpokeshipper2148 i know. That's why I said who made not create.

[@susiedyer3260]

[@GunV-qu2nm]

Oliva Hussey one of the most beautiful, talented women ever born.❤❤❤❤❤

[@toniharris2143]

Loved her in Romeo & Juliet

[@tammyslaughter7141]

She was my favorite Mary. She had the most beautiful doe eyes, which I pictured Mary, the mother of Jesus, to look like!

[@golden8972]

I've always loved Richard Simmons. It hurts to lose so many old friends. Rest in peace.

[@Decgyrrl]

This was a lovely tribute/ remembrance to those who died this year. There are too many for me to mention, individually. I will say that I was shocked upon hearing Tony Todd's, passing. He was on of my favorite horror/ character actors. RIP 🕊🕊🕊🕊🕊🕊

[@margareteplaetzer3127]

So many great people left us this year. And so many that I loved to watch. Way too many this year. A great loss for many. Condolences to all the family and friends that lost loved ones this year.❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

[@kennethkwilinski4899]

You missed actor John Capodice. He appeared in hundreds of movies and TV shows. Movies like Ace Ventura: Pet Detective, Speed, Lost Angelas, and El Coyote. He died December 30, 2024.

[@Christian_Girl120]

Rest in peace to all who have passed away in this video. We did indeed lose many people in 2024. May their memory live on in our hearts.

[@clove7934]

Happy New Year. Praying for the families. 11:45 AM 01-05-2025. 🌹🌹🌹

[@robertdragoff6909]

You did a great job and wisely you waited until 12/31 was over before making your video….. I like watching your videos because they test my memory as to who they were and what was their claim to fame.

[@butchbinion1560]

Thanks. ✌🏻👊🏼

[@ShushLorraine]

I know this must have taken a long time to make, and so respectfully done. Thank you for these remembrances.

[@annem8152]

Rickey Henderson hit me hard. he was only a couple years older than I. I was a huge fan during his career also.

[@Fantasycastle337]

We lost Jimmy Carter too.😢

[@elainewatson756]

Marian Robinson ( Michelle Obama"s Mother ) Passed May 31, 2024 at the age of 86.

[@carolswearingen2109]

Thank you for sharing this.

[@charles-y2z6c]

Pete Rose should be in hall of fame. MLB now has gambling sites as advertisers, encouraging gambling on baseball, how hypocritical

[@michaelbaucom4019]

Earl Holliman also starred in the premiere episode of the acclaimed TV series The Twilight Zone See you in 2 and 2 Chuck Woolery RIP to all

[@donnadunn9608]

Outstanding ❤

[@barberdoug6930]

Thank you for doing a great job.

[@Goooooom-fn9hy]

Good Job as always you guys

[@dramac333]

The one name that I think you excluded from your wrapup was Ken Page, Broadway star of Ain't Misbehavin' and Cats. The great Jimmy Carter was, in my opinion, one of the most underrated Presidents ever.

[@joeheid2776]

RIP to all. 🙏

[@beverlyjohnson5503]

RIP TO ALL GONE BUT NOT FORGOTTEN 😢 TRUE TRAILBLAZER 😢😢
