Fatalities - 2026

Chuck Negron, one of the founding members of Three Dog Night, has died (apparently of heart failure) at 83.

TDN was one of my favorite bands as I hit high school, and though I don't listen to much secular music nowadays, just hearing the name caused to begin flooding my mind.

RIP, Mr. Negron, and thank you for some great music. Condolences to your fans, friends, family and loved ones.
 
Seeing my reply again I realize that statement was false. I saw Steppenwolf twice as well and spaced that off when typing the above. The point is, I held 3 Dog Night in high regard. Such high regard that when I ran across an old concert poster in my shed a few years back, I brought it in for better storage. Being poor I first ushered for concerts and later placed posters about town for a nominal income and a couple of free tickets. Check the price... I was working for peanuts :)

Gerardo Taracena, called a staple of Mexican cinema (though known in the US for a few roles, particularly "Narcos: Mexico" and the film "Man on Fire"), has died at 55. No cause was given.

RIP, Señor Taracena, and thanks for sharing your talents. Condolences to your fans, friends, family and loved ones.
 
Ed "Isky" Iskenderian passed life's finish line yesterday at 104. Everyone who loves motorsports (or just the sound of a "cammy" engine) owes him a moment or two of silence.

RIP, Mr. Iskenderian, and thanks for sharing your insights and talents in improving IC engines. Condolences to your friends, family and loved ones.
