Whether you appreciated his humor, Gilbert Gottfriend's loss is especially sad

Gilbert Gottfried could be annoying and controversial, but he died too young. He was younger than I am. Kinda sobering thought. Left a wife and 2 kids. Sad……

I disliked him at first, but I grew to appreciate his humor over time. They said he had been sick for awhile, but he just gave an interview after the Oscars (worked up to the end?). So sad for his family.

This article explains the condition that led to his death, as well as the actual cause of death: https://www.nbcnews.com/news/amp/rcna24129. It’s not something I had heard of.

And now we lost Miguel Ferrer (son of Jose Ferrer and Rosemary CLooney)

@jym626 You’re like the grim reaper.

I thought Miguel Ferrer died years ago?

Gee…… thanks. Just sharing the news. I am not killing them!

Oops yes! He died a while ago, @GRITS80! not sure why it popped up in my feed today !
