Re: The Dead thread - God sorts 'em out!

He was the speaker at undergrad graduation. We had torrential rain, as in one of the professors showed up in snorkel and flippers. Everyone was under umbrellas. No one could hear a thing he said. Like a giant block party under the umbrellas- smoke of a certain nature wafting out from under the 'canopy'. I heard later he threatened to stop speking because the students were so disrespectful. Rain was so loud I couldn't even hear that he was speaking. Last time they did graduation that way.

WWII ace Fritz Payne. Semper Fi Marine
Frederick R. "Fritz" Payne, a World War II fighter ace who left his mark on aviation and wartime history by shooting down six Japanese warplanes during the Battle of Guadalcanal, a bloody, months-long confrontation that helped change the course of the war, has died at age 104.

The retired Marine Corps brigadier general, who was believed to be the oldest surviving U.S. fighter ace, died on Aug. 6 at his home in Rancho Mirage.

Augusta Chiwy, the Belgian nurse who saved many GI's during the Battle of the Bulge.

Chiwy volunteered in 1944 to assist in an aid station in Bastogne, where wounded and dying U.S. soldiers in their thousands were being treated by a single doctor.

She received a Belgian knighthood and a U.S award for valor in 2011.

Dawkins didn't fulfill his on-court potential people thought he had, but was one of the most colorful players of the era. If he had been better those Sixers teams would have really been something.

Didn't he start the trend of shattering backboards on a slam dunk?

That right there would make him a legend.

Saw a reference in a TSN tweet. Al Arbour died?

As a Rangers fan back in the day - crap.
