    1948-11-18
    " Known as "The Assassin," Jack Tatum, safety guard for the Oakland Raiders, died of a heart attack on July 27, 2010. He had diabetes for the last several years and lost his left leg due to circulation problems. He's best known for his 1978 crushing hit that paralyzed Darryl Stingley. So much so that even today, after each weekly Ohio State game, the coaching staff awards the "Jack Tatum hit of the week" for the hardest tackle or block.

Uh, don't you (whoever is compiling this list) think that it would make some sense to actually list the DATE that each one of these famous people died on (and also, exact date of birth, for that matter), or does someone think that information is just too irrelevant to even bother with?.......(Like, DUH!!!!!!.....)

2010 is shaping up to be another 2009. So sad.

  by anonymous at May 04, 2010 06:53
Death is so sad. Particularly when it takes a talent like these people.

  by anonymous at May 04, 2010 06:51
RIP all of these people! Such a sad year for celeb deaths.

  by anonymous at May 04, 2010 06:40
RIP Lynn Redgrave.

  by anonymous at May 03, 2010 13:12
That sucks. Isn't Lynn Regrave Natasha Richardson's aunt? And Natasha Richardson passed not that long ago. My heart goes out to their family..

  by anonymous at March 18, 2010 18:47
We are losing some really good actors - the new variaty are just wantabes. These older actors like fess parker and peter graves had sone depth to their acting and could also poke fun at themselves. These newer "star" seem to be very superficial. I morn the older generation and hope the newer actors will watch some of the movies of these long-stays and learn what the profession is all about (how to act)

by Whatevayoulike at March 05, 2010 17:50
I hate seeing any celebrity deaths! 2010 so far has taken way too many celebrities. sad

I agree with you on celebrity deaths. 2010 is getting a deadly start, which is never good.

The celebrity deaths in 2010 list is definitely not a good list. It's a sad list!

by Constance Bennet at March 05, 2010 17:57
Everyone loves reading about famous deaths. 2010 will not change that aspect of people being intrigued by death.
