RIP Emma Chambers, actress famed for her roles in the Vicar of Dibley and Notting Hill, has died at the age of 53. I’m shocked, this is an incredibly sad loss at a young age.

The world has lost one of the greatest thinkers it will have ever known. This man was a gift to mankind, and a real treasure. Like Albert Einstein, his name was synonymous with "genius". Few people go through life as accomplished as Stephen Hawking. Many go through life never gaining half the knowledge Hawking had. He was truly an inspiration. May he forever rest in peace.

When he was first diagnosed at the age of 21, the doctors said he wouldn't live past two or three years. But lo and behold, the long life and fantastic legacy he's left.

Shocked to see Hawking died today. I almost cried, I didn't expect this. The world lost a genius.

The scary part is, if he died 3 or 5 years later, his genius potential would never be explored. I'm so glad he lived so long to be recognized. Imagine how many genius people die without even being noticed?

Anthony Bourdain, the famous chef and renaissance man has died via suicide at the age of 61.
My sister said that he once thought about it before, but his daughter talked him out of it. So sad.
This comes days after fashion designer, Kate Spade, committed suicide at the age of 55. That one happened due to stress via separation from her husband.
And conservative pundit Charles Krauthammer revealed that he has weeks to live via cancer.

Having lost a friend to suicide, it is truly one of the most awful things anyone can go through. Please, always keep an eye open and if you are feeling suicidal yourself, please talk to someone.
Jackson Odell, who played Ari on The Goldbergs, passed away aged 20 three days ago. That's far too young.

I know how you feel about losing a friend to suicide. 9 years ago, one of my friends killed himself after he got in a verbal arguement with his girlfriend.

I'm so sorry to hear that dude, it really is the worst thing ever. Honestly it didn't surprise me that mine did it, as he'd tried to end his life the following year, but had sought help and I thought he was getting better. But apparently things went on a tailspin towards the end and eventually he succumbed to it. I miss him a lot.

It's OK. I'm sorry that you're going through your own pain as well. Hopefully, you can remember more of the happy memories of your friend as time goes by.

Pro Wrestling legend Leon White, AKA Big Van Vader, or just simply Vader, has died at the age off 63 via heart failure.
He was very successful in his overall career, but he never found success in the WWE-still called the WWF back in the 1990's-mainly because how he never fit Vince McMahon's idea of what 'big man' should be (Think guys like Undertaker, Kane, etc.).
RIP Vader/Leon White.
