So sad we lost Gena Rowlands. Her work was amazing.

RIP Greg Kihn...They Don't Write 'Em Like That Anymore....for sure brother!

[MichaelPop]

That’s sad and ironic how Gena Rowland died of Alzheimer’s and her character on The Notebook suffered and died from the same.

Gena Rowlands was a great actress. She lived a long life. RIP MRS ROWLANDS. You will be remembered in your movies and live on forever. .❤❤

Isaac Hayes whole soundtrack to Shaft absolutely made that movie. The remake of Shaft just didn't work without Isaac's soundtrack. Still have that record. It was brilliant.

The Hollywood Squares with Peter Marshall was one of my favorite game shows to watch when I was a kid...who didn't love Paul Lynde as the center square! 😄

R.I.P. Mr. Marshall

House of Broken Love and The Angel Song are two of my favorite rock ballads, Jack Russell had an amazing voice.

R I.P. Mr. Russell

Great job Stephen filling in for Linnea. Respectful as always

R.I.P. to all who touched our lives. I've always loved to watch Mitzi and Charlie on Match Game, as well as other shows. She was so sweet and adorable. Their marriage was the longest I've ever known for a Hollywood couple.
And, thank you again, Legacy, for another informative obituary.

Robin Williams made me cry. I pray he is forever at peace. 🕊️❤

Many of us have had loved ones die after living with dementia. It is such a cruel disease for the afflicted as well as for those loved ones who care for the stricken. For those whose deaths were dementia related, we will sorely miss them and will remember the goodness of their lives. We also rejoice that they are now free from the tyranny of dementias claws. Rest in peace.

I was 18 when I saw Gena Rowlands in the movie Gloria. I was mesmerized by what a badass she was not only on film but in real life as well. It unlocked the door for me to be an independent woman who could achieve what I put my mind to. Thank you to Gena Rowlands, Angie Dickinson, Mary Tyler Moore for being Role Models that dared to give us girls a voice to demand we be taken seriously!

8-16-77, the day before my 12th birthday, Mom & I were going to the store when we heard them announce Elvis's death on the radio. And it became an international period of mourning. People from all over the world rushed to Graceland to say goodbye. I've never seen anything else like it, not even close.
Bless all who mourn. We will remember.

Gena Rowland's favorites of mine are Tempest, Charms for the Easy Life, Hope Floats, and Playing by Heart. She was fantastic.

RIP Gena Rowlands! You will be missed! Loved your movies!!

[sailordude]
