Maxx was an interesting individual. I miss talking to him. Gone too soon. I hope his kids are doing well.

Yury Alexandrovich Zinchenko passed away yesterday. He was not known to outside world while he fully deserved to be, at least for tank fans community as he was the person in charge of historic exposition of Patriot Park (former Kubinka armor museum), making sure this relic tanks are dry, warm, lit, clean and guarded. Also he was extremely kind man, nobody was able to leave his office without having cup of tea and some sweets first. Despite of his long battle with cancer, he was working almost to last day. RIP.

Photo takem from his WhatsUp account, showing his early years in Soviet Spetsnaz.

Dang, that is too young.

 

Also, singer Roberta Flack passed. 88, I believe.

Huh, what could have happened? Carbon monoxide poisoning?

He won't be forgotten, his onscreen menace was off the charts.

Only if you didn't give him the key:

Kind of overshadowed by Hackman's passing but Michelle Trachtenberg (Gossip Girl; Harriette the Spy; Buffy the Vampire Slayer; EuroTrip). She was 39 but had recently underwent a liver transplant.

Stuart did mention it yesterday. Very sad, especially considering how young she was.

These things tend to come in threes.  I wonder who's next?

Unlike Jolene, death could not be reasoned with.

So, new results from Gene Hackman investigation:

Seems Betsy Arakawa had Hantavirus infection, and she collapsed and perished. Hackman had advanced Alzheimer's and was unable to call help for his wife or himself, and lived several days, possibly up to week afterwards.
