He passed away at the age of 76.  I met Richard Simmons in the 80's while waiting for a flight from Chicago O'Hare to Denver at the United terminal.  I was watch people in the terminal when I saw a man walking toward me in Pink shorts, White tank top, Pick jacket, and a great Tan.  As he approached me I said how are you today Mr. Simmons.  He stopped looked at me and said very well thank you and moved on.  His flight was at the gate next to mine and I watched  him sign autographs and interact with the people.  Seemed to be a nice man.

Second was Charmed Actress Shannen Doherty who passed away at the age of 53 after a cancer battle.

Dr Ruth the day before.  She had an amazing backstory if you haven't read up on her.

RIP for these folks. Comfort for their family and friends.

God bless all their families and loved ones in their time of need, and may they RIP.
