The death of which famous person upset you most?

jerry ryan, i had his programme on every day on radio, and hardly use the radio since he died, he made many a long car journey short for me, put a smile on my face everyday through the good and bad,
it is such a pity we lost him, can you emagine what he would have discussions on if whe had him right now with the banking fiascos and our economic problems at the moment, he would be putting a lighter spin on it for us to ease our discomfort.
i miss him so much.

Charles Bronson-one of the last of the great strong silent type men, and a real ma at that

Now most men in films and telly are vain weaklings b*tches

Pavarotti, michael jackson and James Brown (christmas day a few years ago if I am right)

Jesus. Is he dead? Haven't watched that show in years but... Jesus.

Ray Meagher is still alive.

I cried lots when Elvis died.

Other than him, the robbing of Terry Prachett's mind by Alzheimers, whilst not death in it's most literal sense, makes me very sad.

Im not usually the sort to cry over someone on the telly dying.

But when the fisherman guy (think his name was Phil) from deadliest catch died I actually did, which surprised me a bit.
It showed him in hospital and his sons after ....and the moments they got the news. One brother calling the other on the phone, that was heavy.

I think it was cause he was so ordinary, like some guy you'd work with or know from down the road. It was just like 'ok he's gone...deal with it..later'.

Jade Goody was a bit like that too, I know people hated on her, but her death was just too close and real, a real slap in the face. Like life/death whispering in your ear saying 'you and your loved ones aren't far behind and theres fk all you can do'.
