[@zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz9]

My father passed away on March 17,1993 (St Patrick day), I was 16, and he was 57 years young. This video came up on my feed, and I had to instantly click. Tyvm for sharing

[@chiensyang]

So sorry about your father. Fifty-seven year old is young. What happened to him if you do not mind sharing.

[@raphaferrari7361]

Not only moved, but could not hold my tears... may your lovely dog be in a safe and blessed place❤

Your credits for Don Ameche are for his 1980s comeback. The man had been a major star in the 1930s and 40s, then his career slowed down to live theater and TV guest shots.

RIP Marian Anderson - A beautiful contralto who's voice matched the heavens.

[@george217]

Vincent Price was also a renowned art historian and founder of an art museum in California.

[@madbrowniac7871]

Cowrote with Miss Mary Price a Terrific Cookbook called "Come Into The Kitchen" as well with a Compilation of magnificent Recipes, a thorough History of American Cuisine, and a very extensive depiction of America's Wine Culture across time. The illustrations alone of trends by decade are worth the economic investment if you can find a copy!😁😉🖊📒🥩🍗👨‍🍳👩‍🍳🧀🥗🥣🥘🍝🍷B.W.

Singer Marian Anderson died April 8, 1993 at age 96. Actor Don DeFore who portrayed George Baxter of the 60s show Hazel died December 22, 1993 at age 80.

Don Drysdale pitched for BROOKLYN for two years before the move to LA. When he retired, he was literally the last of the Brooklyn Dodgers.

[@kristitedrow1577]

Thank you for showing Polly Klaas. She was the same age as me and her murder has always stuck with me.

[@leecowell8165]

Yeah that was unreal. I was hoping for a favorable outcome but also knew that the chances of that happening were very slim. I agree appreciate the mention I wonder if her parents are still with us?

[@themonsterjamtalkshow8025]

Don't forget the Nascar legends Davey Allison and Alan kulwicki who died in 1993 due to a plane crash

[@lja6214]

You missed actor Richard Jordan. He was known for films such as "Logan's Run" and "Gettysburg". Also, as Joseph Armagh in the NBC TV miniseries "Captains and the Kings" in 1976. He died on August 30, 1993, age 56 of a brain tumor.

[@stevenpagnani7005]

Andre had a growing disease when he was a kid. His health conditions caught up with him in the late 80's and early 90's. His legs were getting weaker and couldn't support his weight

[@daniellemitchell3118]

Thank you for this. It was a seminal year in my life. I noticed that Marian Anderson abd jazz legend Billy Ekstine weren't there. They both died at the beginning of the year.

[@teesman61]

I'm finding it difficult to get my head around that this is 31 years ago.

[@brunomadero7054]

Audrey Hepburn. Andre The Giant. Brandon Lee. Vincent Price. River Phoenix. Bill Bixby. Long live to his legacy. Rest In Peace.

[@bryanhaynes6742]

You definitely have an elegance in the delivery to once famous and some forgotten people in our past. Thanks for making me remember the ones I forgot. Great touch mentioning family members and friends from your past.

[@greglehmann7234]

You left out Grace Stafford voice of Woody Woodpecker and Charles Barton and Charles Lamont directors of classic Abbott And Costello comedies I've loved since childhood.

[@glenbateman5960]

Honorable mention for the great German actor, Werner Stocker, perhaps best known for his role of Darius, the 2,000 year old immortal monk/priest in Highlander: The Series. He died of a brain tumor on May 27, 1993. He was only 38 years old.

[@mattmcrae1458]

A note on Don Drysdale - Long time broadcaster, his best firend Ken 'Hawk' Harrelson said Don's biggest fear was dying alone in a hotel room and that's exactly how he passed, in a foreign country no less (Dodgers at Montreal Expos).

[@outtaherephils]

Richie Ashburn would pass away in a similar manner in 1997. He also had stated he feared dying in a hotel room. In fact, I believe it was after Drysdale’s death that Ashburn mentioned this. Vin Scully had the unenviable task of not only having to announce Drysdale’s passing midgame, but also having to call the first few innings knowing this had happened but unable to make the announcement until after Drysdale’s family had been notified

[@rogerbarrett1979]

When Conway Twitty died it devastated me a great deal. I wasn't the same for months. He was one of my favorite singers since childhood. He's one of those singers who just can't be replaced.

[@Grandizer8989]

River Phoenix is the biggest loss to Hollywood since James Dean. We’ve been robbed of so many great movies bc of his death

[@DuckReach432]

Worth seeing the Fred Gwynne movie, "Disorganised Crime." It's one of those low-budget B-movies that has aged pretty well.

[@ediemcphillips9334]

You left off Kerry Von Erich, who died from a self-inflected gunshot wound on February 18, 1993. He was the fifth of the six Von Erich brothers to die and the third to commit suicide after his brothers Chris (in 1991) and Mike (in 1987).

[@carly_j8011]

Arthur Ashe had hemophilia. He received blood transfusions on a regular basis throughout his life. It wasn’t a severe case so he was able to lead a normal life including being a tennis champion. Thus, he received blood that was not screened for AIDS and that led to his death from complications of that virus.

Why on Earth do you put crazy people like David Koresh on these? Saw a few before but this one got me asking why.
