No matter how many life insurance quotes you get or policies you hold, when it is your time to go, you pass on to hopefully a better place.

Deaths this year have included:

J.D. Salinger, famous author, wrote Catcher in the Rye
Justin Mentell, appeared in Boston Legal, 27 years old
Zelda Rubinstein, Poltergeist medium

James Mitchell, played Palmer Courtlandt in All My Children (I use to be a big fan!)

I will be posting about some of the individuals in the future, so be on the look out!
