Can't believe Prince is gone. He had such an impact on the music world and was always a topic of pride when I talked about being from the Minneapolis area. :(

Another great artist gone :(
It was on the news here yesterday and some evening shows paid a lot of attention to Prince.

2016 is continuing its reign of terror, though it has shifted from the world of music to the world of athletics.

Muhammad Ali died last week at the age of 74, and this morning Gordie Howe, Mr. Hockey himself, has died at the age of 88.

Gordie lived a long life nothing tragic about the age of death there especially for a hockey player.

Still super sad even though I've never seen him play.

Kong was he playing in the alumni game this season in Denver?

Youtuber Zeldaxlove64 better known as Christina Grimmie from the voice USA was shot multiple times and killed after a performance in Orlando. At the young age of 22 this is horrible and devistating. She was such a lovely upbeat girl it's so sad.

News article

I remember discovering her years before she entered the voice. She had such a strong voice.

Ali and Gordie Howe had long lives so their deaths really don't hit me as hard as this one.

R.I.P. Christina

She also was a gamer and a fan of Zelda and Sonic amongst other games.

Read about it late yesterday: Anton Yelchin died at age 27, crushed by his own car at home...

Didn't know the actors name, but I knew him from the latest Star Trek movies where he played as Checkov. Sad to see him pass away by such strange accident at a young age. :(

Yeah, this was a sad one. He was in some good stuff other than Star Trek—like Only Lovers Left Alive. Great movie, and he played a minor part very memorably. He had a lot of potential.

Elie Wiesel passed away. He's a holocaust survivor, writer, and activist. If you've never read him, consider reading Night even though it'll haunt you for the rest of your life. That's okay - it's supposed to. That means you're human.
