In Memoriam 2016: Famous Faces We Lost in 2016 (rev2.0)

[@Laura-zy5jp]

Oh my gosh many well known musicians , actors & actresses !! So many lost in 2016 . I adored Patty Duke and her kids Sean Astin & Mackenzie Astin . Love and still love streaming the many made for television movies she made from the early 70s to the 90s . It was her eldest son Sean Astin who announced his mom’s death to the media I remember . Patty did ALOT for the SAG union she served as President of SAG . She suffered from Bipolar depression undiagnosed until the 80s and a movie was made . Patty also wrote her autobiography “Call Me Anna” which is her birth name. Cried when I learned of Patty’s passing . I to suffer from emotional problems . For me I manage with prescription meds every day and talk therapy 3 times a month . And my 2 cats and watching my favorite old shows from the 70s & 80s. Also my favorite TV movies and miniseries from 70s-90s. Also love my flowers and nature strolls . Patty Duke was an idol to me. I miss her dearly.Rest in Peace Patty🌺🕊🕊💐🌷🌹🌸🌼⭐️⭐️💔✝️✝️❤️‍🩹

I still can't get over it that Carrie Fischer dies and her mother Debbie Reynolds passes the next day.

[@kazamshah4543]

I can't believe we lost everyone in this year.

[@martakline4147]

Yes.. very meaningful

[@marcm8406]

Debbie died of what they call Broken Heart Syndrome. She and Carrie were two fine actresses, and will be sorely missed 🙏🙏

[@robertdragoff6909]

Debbie and Carrie were as close as a mother and daughter could be. After Star Wars took off and became a smash hit, Debbie would say that she was “….princess Leah’s mommy….” I miss both of them

[@su-rv2uq]

She apparently felt that she could not live without Carrie, and so she didn't.

[@qolspony]

My sister mourned David Bowie. She was to die April.5th 2016. Another one of her idols were George Michael, which she did not get a chance to mourn. RIP Rhonda 1966 - 2016.

[@telbon8869]

I cry every time I watch In Memoriam. Some die so very young, others very old, but it's always sad. Many times I had not heard that people featured had passed away. Many almost felt like friends and family, having watched them many times on TV, or the movies, or heard them on radio. Now I am old myself, and it is a poignant reminder of the brevity of life and our own mortality. I have lost so many of my own family and friends as I'm sure many of you viewers have. May God bless us all and reunite for eternity in heaven.😢❤🎉

My mom died August 29, 2016. The same day Gene Wilder did. She liked him on Blazing Saddles and of course Willie Wonka. To this day I still wonder if they met up in the next life, and is he keeping her constantly laughing.

[@simonagree4070]

Whenever I watch one of these, I notice all the people I remember from Dean Martin's Comic Roast, which ran for about ten years, with a hiatus in the early '80s. There are quite a few of them in this 2016 episode, both roasters and roastees. Hardly anyone from that show is still alive, not surprising because the majority were middle-aged comics and character actors, with a few old stars sprinkled in.

[@douglasiles2024]

I think the saddest of all of these was Anton Yelchin. He was so young, and had such a bright career ahead of him.

[@su-rv2uq]

And he passed in such a freak accident, being crushed by his own car.

[@jacmandora1]

So many famous people passed this year.

[@DecepticonSkywarp]

18:39 I was thrilled to attend the latest Concert for a Cause; put together by The Christina Grimmie Foundation back in September of 2023.The Foundation was created to help those impacted by gun violence; putting together funds for survivors and families who lost loved ones; so that every day issues won't become extra burdens to the important task of grieving. I have met several of those benefited by CGF; many who have stayed on to help others in turn. They are some of the most courageous and compassionate frands I've ever seen; the legacy of a young woman who started her music career to become an inspiration for others; especially younger girls. Adam Levine; her mentor for season 6 of The Voice said this on a PSA testimonial for CGF: "There are certain people who won't let you be the sort of status quo person you usually are. I wanted to be better around her(Christina), for her." So says millions of Team Grimmie frands worldwide. Always With Love. ☮💚Rawwk Fingers \|/

When the Pope was making his trip to Cuba he asked Mother Theresa to pray for him. She was an amazing person. Started broadcasting from a garage in Birmingham al and made it the biggest religious network in the world. The Pope was speaking at the Vatican the day she died, someone in the crowd held up a picture of mother Theresa, he stopped right in the middle of his speech and pointed up and said shes in heaven now.

[@LyleFrancisDelp]

In watching all of these In Memoriam videos, I am stricken by the number of rock musicians, both young and old, who died by either drug overdose, or suicide. What sad lives they must have led.

[@su-rv2uq]

Contrary to popular belief, fame and fortune are not generally dreams come true. They demand much of a person in that situation, piece by piece, neverending. It's true that that life is chosen, by adults, NOT by children, but might become a trap, with few ways out.

[@tyronedavis1767]

I like the way is done. Keep doing them.

[@traceymccorkle8469]

Including my mom Marion L McCorkle 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭 passed away 1-1-38too 7-3-2016 the world greatest mama 😇💯 per cent love you

[@ladycplum]

I will never forget walking into the kitchen on the 14th, and my father had this sort of "You're not gonna like hearing this" expression on his face. Then he said "Alan RIckman died". I just stood there for a second then ran into my room and completely lost it. I had been a fan since Die Hard, followed his career through everything, and of course, fell in love with his interpretation of Professor Snape. I felt like the sky had lost a star, just like Luna Lovegood said in the final Potter film. For a long time I couldn't watch anything he was in without bursting into tears.

[@CocoChanel-gf6yy]

That was a hard one to take. I watched all of his movies as well. I remember going in to see Robin Hood thinking that I would be rooting for Kevin Costner but ended up rooting for Alan's character :)

[@brunomadero7054]

My mom also died on Aug. 5th of that year . Her first great granddaughter had her birthday that same day..my Mom tried so hard to hold on and not go on Kat's birthday..she really tried..I knew it was her wish. But she just didn't make it..by only like an hour. Love you, Mom!!! You were always the best!!!

I can't believe Debbie Reynolds died one day after her daughter, Carrie Fisher. And their deaths weren't connected? Strange

[@lynettepalecek3141]

I think that they were connected because I think that Debbie Reynolds was literally heartbroken after her daughter's 💔 death to the point that she died. That can and does happen. Debbie Reynolds and her daughter Carrie Fisher were extremely close.

[@E.K.2003]

Debbie Reynold's greatest fear was outliving her daughter. She actually did realize this. I believe the shock of Carrie's death affected her to the point that the shock did take her life.

[@dskyyksd]

She died of a hemorrhagic stroke. She had a weakness in a blood vessel in her brain that may have never ruptured before she died of other causes. The shock of Carrie's death almost certainly set it off.
