snsurone Did you try these links ? Do you see the way obituaries that are a tribute to the departed are written ? Someone will be starting the one for 2020 in a couple of days.

I expect to get my browser serviced pretty soon, so I can log on to Wiki again, for obits and other items. I really miss Wiki, even if it is wrong sometimes, LOL.
But thank you all for the links.

The POINT is that there is an Official Classic Film OBIT thread here on Classics and it is updated daily by posters who have access to sites other than Wikipedia . There is another one on the Celebrities Board. Did you LOOK at and read the obit threads ? They illustrate how an OBIT is usually written .. journalistically, they are not intended as "opinion pieces" containing negative comparisons with the relatives of the deceased or personal views of the departed.

Going OT for a bit:
I wish that TV and periodicals would wait until after New Year's Day to show obits of celebrities who have died the year before. TCM REMEMBERS and several magazines have omitted the passings of Sue Lyon and radio shock-jock Don Imus because they aired or went to press before these deaths. Yes, they will eventually be memorialized, but I believe it would be better if they were included in the entire output.
Do you agree?

Well, after eight years, my laptop breathed its last, and I bought a new one. I swear, there are so many changes in electronic communication that it makes my head spin! But I'm pretty well used to this new computer, and my favorite sites are bookmarked and easily accessible. I just wish electronics weren't so damned expensive! I'm glad to be back on this forum. fellow posters.

Sue was indeed a beauty. She was with girl-magnet, Donovan, for a couple of years. According to a Facebook tribute page...
"Sue Lyon came into Donovan's life at the end of 1965. This was two or three years before he met his "Jennifer Juniper" (Jenny Boyd). Lyon had starred in Lolita and Night of the Iguana before meeting Donovan. The couple dated until 1967 when Sue ended the relationship abruptly. Donovan had evidently slipped LSD in Sue's and her friend's drinking cup at a party. Sue described her trip as "frightening and disturbing" and she "felt her self-control disintegrating". After this incident Lyon never spoke to Donovan again until 1975. The two are now good friends and Sue attended Ione Skye's (Donovan's daughter) marriage to King Ad-Rock (with the Beastie Boys)..."
R.I.P.
