I'll second that. Besides the bloated, vile Cheeto being elected president, the sheer number and quality of people we lost this year is depressing.

I have a sinking feeling that 2017 is going to be worse.

We still have this fellow, who's the last person born in the 1800s: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Emma_Morano

There has not been someone who's reached that age (117 years, 28+ days) since 1999.

Just found out that Carrie Fisher has the same birth date (Oct. 21) as me. Her birth year (1956) is the same as my mom's. Fortunately, both of us are still alive as of this post (hope I didn't jinx anything!)
