Who do you miss the most?

[Rash]

What entertainer (poet, author, dancer, comedian, actor, singer, band, athlete, etc)  do you miss the most?   Excluding the ones that died of natural causes (disease, heart attack, stoke, etc.)    They can be ancient or contemporary.  Someone who had more to contribute, but their time was just cut to short.

I miss john Lennon, he didn't deserve 4 shots to the back.  He had issues, but not too that extent.

I have to agree about Lennon.  The funny thing is, as I've grown older, I've come to kind of understand (sort of) where chapman was coming from when he called Lennon a fraud.  Lennon WAS a fraud.  He sat in an ivory tower and preached about imagining there were no posessions...  But, he didn't deserve to die.  The Beatles WOULD have gotten back together if not for chapman.  The funny thing is, even 28 years later, (my god has it been that long?) I still get SUPER PISSED if I think about it too much.

Carry Grant and Mr. Rodgers died of natural causes.

I agree they are good choices, I just want the ones that died from unnatural causes.

IIRC, Vincent had Emphysema and Parkinson's for a long time before he died I want to say of, Lung Cancer.   Don't quote me on that, but I believe that is correct.
