As millions of people die each year, and so many people have some vague element of 'celebrity' I wonder whether we going to have to note every one of them that we have only maybe heard of and stare at the ground while muttering '..damn 2016 ..'?

If so, we might suspect 'damn 2017' is going to be considerably 'worse'.

I don't mean to sound disrespectful, nor is it a direct retort to BlueWales' post in particular.

Rabbi Lionel did a lot of good work and was inspirational to many.
