Ann B Davis passed away today at the age of 88 after falling in her San Antonio bathroom according to NBC News. She is best known for playing Alice on The Brady Bunch in almost all of its incarnations. She was the maid we wanted our parents to hire, but never the one they got. Besides starring on the classic sitcom we all watched growing up, she starred in several commercials.
So today let’s honor by watching at least one episode on The Brady Bunch, a show, thanks to syndication, that has never stopped airing since its debut in 1969.

Dr Maya Angelou left the world today at the age of 86 according to WGHP. The much adored poet and civil rights activist always knew the right thing to say, even her last Tweet was impactful. Her last published words read, “Listen to yourself and in that quietude you might hear the voice of God.” And now he is listening to her voice up in heaven.
So today spend the day reading her inspirational quotes, so even though her voice has been silenced we can still hear it loud and clear.

Remembering the TV characters we lost this season! |

This television season was deadly, and several of our favorite characters did not make it to the end of it. But do they get an In Memoriam tribute at the Emmys? No, they do not. So HuffPost TV gave them a proper send off. So take a few minutes today to remember those who left our TV screens this year.
That is unless you don’t want to be spoiled about what happened on Breaking Bad, House of Cards, Sons of Anarchy and/or Game of Thrones.
Sadly, just like the Oscars, Finn Hudson was omitted from the tribute. But other than him and Supernatural’s Kevin Tran, they pretty much got them all. Is there anyone you think is missing from the beautiful obituary?

RIP Bob Hoskins |

Bob Hoskins passed away today at the age of 71 after a bout with pneumonia according to the Daily Mirror. The brilliant actor was known for Who Framed Roger Rabbit?, Mona Lisa, Mermaids, Nixon, Super Mario Bros, Hook, Pinocchio and Snow White and the Huntsman to name a few. Even though he received an Oscar nomination, his greatest role was being a dad. His daughter Haute Hoskins paid tribute to her dad, and what she said every child should read.
So read her beautiful words and then watch one of his movies to keep his spirit alive.

Peaches Geldof passed away today at the age of just 25. Kent Police told the BBC, “At this stage, the death is being treated as unexplained and sudden.”
She was the daughter of Bob Geldof and Paula Yates, who she lost when she was only 11 to a drug overdose.
Peaches was married to Thomas Cohen with whom she had two sons, Astala, 1, and Phaedra, who is turning 1 on April 24th. Before marrying Cohen she dated director Eli Roth and married Max Drummey in Vegas when she was just 19, the two separated after just 6 months.
So sad because she had her two boys and her whole life to look forward to.
