2022 Losses of people, places, things of fame/notority

[Urban Cowboy]

And guns.

Yet another rapper was shot and killed, this time a man who goes under, ya, Trouble. He was visiting a house when the perp broke in and shot Trouble.

I've never understood why so many rappers get eliminated?

In Trouble's case it appears that the woman he was seeing had a jealous ex who broke in and just shot his rival.

But yes the list of dead rappers is incredibly long.

Philip Baker Hall Remembered by Patton Oswalt, Michael McKean and Others: ‘One of the Best’

”Nobody made Larry David break on camera as much as Phil,“ director Greg Mottola says of the performer’s ”Seinfeld“ and ”Curb“ appearances.

Fans and cinephiles online shared clips from some of his standout moments in “Boogie Nights” and talks about enjoying the “simple pleasures like butter in my *bleep*” or in “Magnolia” where he faints during a game show talking about the beauty of a piece from Chopin. Though many of his roles were brief, character-actor turns, they were frequently memorable thanks to either his ability to flash a forceful presence or a hangdog expression.

Some of Baker Hall’s other standout performances included appearances in “Argo,” “Zodiac,” “The Truman Show,” “The Talented Mr. Ripley,” “Bruce Almighty,” “Monk” and “BoJack Horseman,” to name just a few roles from his 185 credits dating back to 1970.

Another Sports star, basketball player this time, died of "natural causes" at age 25. But funny they don't specify at age 25 what is considered natural causes for a 25 year old. Rags to riches story.

WARSAW, Poland — Józef Walaszczyk, a member of the Polish resistance who rescued dozens of Jews during the Nazi German occupation of Poland during World War II, has died aged 102.

Walaszczyk died on Monday, according to the Institute of National Remembrance, a Polish state historical body.

Walaszczyk fell in love during the war with a Jewish woman, Irena Front, only learning that she was Jewish when German Gestapo forces searched a hotel where he was staying with her.
