Significant people's (not celebrities) deaths

It seems the last spud hurled to ducksie may have been a direct hit.

Hey canā€™t have been to old chief. Mid 50ā€™s?

50 I believe.

RIP Ducksie. Genuinely shocking news. A Kilkenny legend.

Ducksie could probably be bumped up to the celebrity thread as Iā€™d say thereā€™s hardly a poster here who hasnā€™t heard of him and his exploits.
However Iā€™d say thereā€™s a tiny a,punt of us would have recognised him on the street. Anyway RIP.

nobody would recognize him therefore not celeb

Well here he is in typical pose.
