Significant people's (not celebrities) deaths

Is the soccer fella still alive?

Good commentator in his day. Made a memorable call of the Khalid Skah/Richard Chelimo (RIP) 10,000 metres final in Barcelona when the other Moroccan got involved.

Oh, he was raging that night.
I think he may have gone to TCD to study history, I remember him attending some history society speaker event and recognising his voice when he asked questions

Jaysus she was still publishing horoscopes. Or someone was in her name. What a sham. Spotted a gap in the market when she was an editor in the NOTW and took off from there. He who dares.

I’m sorry to read that. He always came across as a decent man. Sixtyish is no age.
