Associated Press (AP) writer Jake Coyle offers an interesting article about all the famous people, public figures, and notable persons who died this summer ("Ceaseless deaths of the famous mark summer '09). Although Coyle begins the list in late May (which must be the new beginning of summer) with the death of Dom DeLuise, he does manage to round up a shockingly large list of notable demises:
David Carradine, Walter Cronkite, Farrah Fawcett, John Hughes, Michael Jackson, Senator Edward M. (Ted) Kennedy, and Patrick Swayze are the ones that personally touched me.
Coyle inserts the usual complaint about the excessive coverage of Micheal Jackson's death (June), although I think the coverage of Michael's passing and related matters was far less irritating than the coverage of President Ronald Reagan's death back in 2004.
