Ray Liotta has reportedly died in his sleep while on location in the DR for a film. Great tough-guy/bad guy actor. He was just 67.

RIP, Mr. Liotta, and thanks for sharing your talents.

I also just learned that actor Fred Ward died Sunday at 79. I liked him in every movie I saw him in, including the sometimes-silly but entertaining and enjoyable “Remo Williams.”

RIP, Mr. Ward, and thanks for sharing your talents.

Musicians in bands whose familiarity stems from my “coming of age” years are passing with increasing frequency. I think that means I am officially old. Of course the fact that there’s no way I could blow out all the candles on my birthday cake (and likely no one could get them all lit before enough had melted to ruin the cake) is another sign.

RIP, gents, and thanks for some memorable tunes. (Especially Yes; I spun their vinyl a lot and had them on several mix tapes.)

Thought you were around my age.. Just the way you got into conversations of fixing up their own cell phone, I mis and hit on the other bands every so often.

This one snuck by last week. Lenny Von Dolen passed at 64; no cause was given. I thought he was a very underappreciated actor. I wasn't a Twin Peaks fan, which was probably what he was best known for.

RIP, Mr. Von Dolen, and thanks for sharing your talents.
