    Who have we lost ?

    Not including my larger than life deceased grandfather(merchant marine) , my nutty grandmother or my mother (who was always giving and never saying no to any cause ) , who is/are missing from our world that you feel has made a contribution to the arts , science ,politics , humanity or life in general ?
    I can think of a good many and as I was looking at some Utube video's of Eric Clapton and thinking of how many more people he has played with and who are gone and reflect on how of many others that I have seen pass between these two centuries of my existence (FISH,SAWTROLL,SPACEMULE don't count because they're still breathing ) ,so here's a couple that are missing

    >

    or these two



    There are so many others that I can add but please feel free and don't be shy to add yours whether it be arts , science , politics(but no political arguments) , humanity or any field but please reference your your choice so others can understand /benefit from your nominations .

    Ronald Reagan

    Our Founding Fathers (or to be politically correct, old dead guys with wigs) so they can smack our A hole's in office in the head with the constitution. Oh wait, those in office right now dont believe in the constitution.
    I would rather have a German division in front of me than a French one behind me.

    Apparently Reagan didn't either. Why do you cherish a president that broke laws and lied to the American public? Reagan was no different than Obama.

    I wish Dr. Sagan was still around too, a brilliant mind cut short. Youtube has some good vids of his work. Didn't agree with everything he said but no one can deny that he was a pioneer and had a great way of communicating his views with others. He truly opened the cosmos for millions of young minds...

    Semper fi to your list there Ryan, and I am sorry to hear about the love of your life...

    I have several on my list, but the one that is at the top is my grandfather, he was more of a father to me since my father wasn't and didn't want to be around in my life....

    RIP and you are missed lots

    I liked old Reagan. His biggest faux pas was that damn 1986 amnesty for the illegal Mexicans.
