How many more?

I just read that thee great Ray Dennis Steckler passed on... Steckler directed one of the greatest movies ever made - "Rat Pfink A Boo Boo" that starred my good friend, Titus Moody (who we also lost over 5 years ago) and Ronald Haydock. If you haven't seen it, I HIGHLY recommend it!!

Who else have we lost in the last year?

Vampira
Bo Diddley
Rudy Ray Moore
Nathaniel Mayer
Eartha Kitt
Bettie Page
Cyd Charisse
Kenneth Keith Kallenbach
Yma Sumac
Van Johnson

Those are some heavy hitters...

Let's slow it down a bit, OK?
