Many TV and movie stars that I remember from my childhood growing up along with some outstanding musicians have passed this year. The list is so long that I would be here for days writing about them and you the readers would be scrolling for days looking at them so I have chosen a few of my favorites out of the many to post about minus a few that I have wrote posts on already.
Here’s hoping 2017 doesn’t have so many RIP posts written on artists who have passed and I’m Hoping all of you have a Safe and Healthy 2017
