I’m shocked at some of these names. I didn’t know and I surely can’t press “like.” I had no idea that some of these people were gone.

I try and keep track during the year under the top menu “Memorial” so when I hear I make a post when I can find a really good quote by that person. Sometimes I am unable to find one and so don’t post. But glad you saw this post and now you know how I deal with it on my ArtofQuotations blog – honoring all manner of artists. Hope you have a great New Year! – Douglas
