Yvette Vickers

This is a sad story.  Actress Yvette Vickers' remains were found in a mummified state...she had apparently died close to a year before and it was only recently that someone thought to check on her.  The story has an error...they list her as 82 but IMDB lists her birth year as 1936 so she actually would only be 74 now.

Wikipedia has her birthday as August 26, 1928.

I just read something about this too.  This is very sad.

I know he's a sportsman and I don't even like golf, but I think he was a charismatic gentlemen and I always enjoyed seeing his interviews. I suppose the mere fact I knew of him so well is proof of how he was bigger than his sport to me.

I was just reading yesterday that he had taken a turn for the worst. I always admired his colorful and flamboyant antics on the golf course which made a normally dull spectator sport much more interesting to watch.
