I am not to enamored with any famous person...and I am speaking of tv /movie stars...you may have meant other type of famous people...

I miss people like Jackie Gleason, Red Skelton.....people that made me laugh or entertained me. Loved the Saturday night shows with Jackie Gleason. I had no idea who they voted for, what soap box they were standing on etc....I just enjoyed watching them on tv.

So very many! The ones mentioned here already - for sure.

Also, for me, Natalie Wood, Robin Williams, and I wish my memory weren't so destroyed because I know there are more.

Oh! Patty Duke. Her death really shocked me. I don't know why. It just did.

Many have died. I'm not star-struck, and don't spend a lot of time dwelling on stars, in life or death. But, there was one that hit me hard.... Robin Williams, as much for how this man, who brought so much laughter and joy to so many, died, as that he died.

Rod McKuen, Leonard Cohen ... but I don't "miss" their talent. I have CDs and videos, and there are any number of YouTube videos.

Writers .... we have their books to read and re-read.

Artists .... we can still their paintings / sculptures.

@Jackhound Mom

That would be George Carlin, whom many say I resemble. Not many are able to turn every day happenings into humor, he could and did. Sure, a lot of his material was meant for non-prudish "Adult Only" audiences, but most knew that before seeing, or listening to him. Haven't seen anyone come even close to him since his death in 2008.

I for 1 miss him.

I miss Michael Jackson.🤔 He was a very troubled soul but gave us several DECADES of memorable music. I remember the first time I saw him do the "robot" on television-my jaw dropped. My friends and I had the biggest crush on him and could not wait for the next 45 single to come out. I always smile when I think of The Jackson 5.

~~~All we need is LOVE💖

Writer Sue Grafton, John Lennon, Glenn Frey, Judy Holiday and Montgomery Clift (what a shame--he was only 45 when he died in 1966).
