I’ve never been one to idolize celebrities. That said, it would be foolish of me to claim they haven’t touched countless lives. So, when they’re gone, it’s no wonder their loss is felt so deeply.
Just last week, I paused mid-scroll during an otherwise mundane social media browse to learn that David Lynch had passed.
It felt strangely personal. His work, creative talent, and unshakable authenticity had always inspired me. He was a dreamer unlike any other, and it saddened me to realize there won’t be any more projects under his name. I’m still thinking about him.
As it happens, Redditors recently reflected on other celebrity deaths that struck a similar chord. Their stories moved us to put together a list of their choices as a tribute. Read them below, and let’s honor their legacies together.

That they didn't know he had Lewis Body dementia until after he died is so sad. I remained "Robin's Wish" for those who haven't watched it yet.
JessieJ&LilyLovebug 11 months ago
It is almost impossible to diagnose Lewis Body Dementia without an autopsy. It is caused by the build up of Lewy Bodies within certain areas of the brain and the symptoms are largely indistinguishable at least to the observer, from other forms of Dementia, like Huntington's and Parkinson's. The differences from the afflicted's perspective are horrific, though.

When I was a boy, my dad would vocally discuss how he didn't want me.
Mister Rogers was an adult male who seemed to like me just fine. I would watch his show as a child and my mom say I would *plead* with the television when he started putting on his shoes.
"Stay today! Just this time, please, just stay this time..."
I heard he died at the end of my work day. I couldn't finish my supper, I went into my room, closed my door and cried my eyes out. I was 24. I really, really, really wanted to just tell him thank you.

How he died: "He was pinned between his Jeep Grand Cherokee and a brick pillar gate post outside his house in Studio City, Los Angeles.[40][41][42] As Yelchin apparently got out of his car and went to check his locked gate for mail, the vehicle rolled back down his driveway, which was on a steep incline, and trapped him against the pillar and a security fence. He was pronounced dead at the scene"

I feel really sorry for his parents. Between the fact the he was an only child, so young and such a sudden and absolutely terrifying way to go, I can't even begin to imagine their pain. My Dad was only 46, but he was the oldest of his siblings. His age, how sudden and horrific way that he was killed all played a HUGE role in my Grandma's mental health. Even though she was a terrible human being, having to bury her son is something I wouldn't wish on anyone.

He was who he was and I'm grateful we had him while we did. I never got the impression his family blamed him. And, to be fair, the risk of being killed by a stingray is far lower than doing many everyday activities, so it doesn't seem fair to call that particular activity risky. It was truly a freak accident.

Um....no. You can blame the doctors, and the new age BS being attached to addiction treatment. He literally wrote the book on addiction, and his extreme level of weakness....and yet when he went to rehab, in an attempt to overcome that addiction the "professionals" solution was to offer him a new, and very addictive d**g. There's a text from the doctor (who was prescribing the stuff, outside of standard usage and without medical basis) to a collogue saying ""I wonder how much this moron will pay." The same kind of thing that happened to michael Jackson, and prince and a revolving door of others. I'm all for legalization of EVERYTHING....but part of that is to remove the stigma and to facilitate better treatment options...when someone says "i have a problem, i need help" they should get it....not be given a brand new problem sold as a solution.

Hell Iz 11 months ago
I was battling major depression when Chris Cornell died. As a Gen x-er, I saw almost all my teenage idols die by suicide. I was 15 when Kurt Cobain died and his death also hit me hard because he was the first artist I felt spoke for my generation and could translate how we collectively felt as teens in the 90’s. So when I learned about Chris’ suicide, an artist I still adored and listened to religiously, it hit me in a particularly nasty way. I was thinking, in my depressed state, that we were all a doomed effed-up generation and if someone as talented and a beautiful human being as Chris Cornell felt he had no way out but to end it in his fifties, what was the hope for me? told my husband how I felt and his support and a lot of therapy later, I came out of it strong and healthy. I still listen to Chris’ voice often and I still remember how his death made me feel. He will always have a special place in my heart.

The fatality rate for underride accidents is INSANE, but the Trucking industry's fierce lobbying against regulations for quality standards for "that bar" and requirements for underride guards along the sides of trailers is even worse. Most existing guards fail in a collision under 30mph. Your car goes underneath, and you literally take the back of a semi to the face. Give trucks their space on the road and don't pass on the right... Accidents happen.
