Just looked up some bio information on him. He spent 38 years in the NFL as a player and a coach. He went to 9 Superbowls, winning in one as a player and a second one as an assistant coach, although he never won a Superbowl as a head coach.

Well since you brought up the "mysterious" death of 84yo Don I was suprised last month (December) when I saw the fresh obit for his 102yo mother Margaret's passing.

We sometimes lose track of celebrities after their show is over, so you might be interested in this. Sheila Kuehl, who played Zelda Gilroy, went on to become a politician, a lawyer, and the first female president pro tem of the California State House of Representatives.

because old people think back on their lives a lot and notice when their 'idols' or other cultural icons start dying.

I mean, bowie would have been 75 this year. I still have a hard time wrapping my head around how old we are.
