Now THAT’S what I call an obscure show-biz obituary!!!
Always liked their music. I have a lot of their songs on my old man MP3 player.
RIP.
At 77 years old one's passing isn't too much of a surprise; at 37, sure. At 77, not so much.
Watch It!!! I just turned 72 two days ago, and I’m sure I would be surprised!
I’m 58 and the other day two snot nosed yutes were yammerin bout old people and one ax’d....who really wants to be 78 anyway?
I wryly smiled and answered...a 77 year old
Down goes Frazier! Down goes Frazier!
Well they called him Superskier
as he sat around the sundeck
For he swore that he would never take a spill
When they finally brought him down
they had to use three toboggans
to carry all the pieces down the hill.

RIP, Joe
On their website it shows him as a Catholic Priest. I did not know that!
