A bit of good news for this thread: Despite what was shown in the "In Memoriam" reel at the Oscars, Jan Chapman is still alive and well.

RIP Yevgeny A. Yevtushenko, Russian poet who gave readings of his works in packed stadiums, and who denounced both anti-Semitism and Josef Stalin.

Decades ago, I saw Don Rickles on some show, chatting with members of the audience, including an adorable little girl. He was being very sweet to her — and, obviously coached for this, she called him a "hockey puck"! That's how I'll always remember him, pretending shock at being zinged with his own line.
