No it isnt i think that this is not year where we losted so man well known people because from your list i dont know more than half pupils and they are not really popular so my final answer is no because their low popularity in world.

Final answer?  lol
This isn't a game show.  Also your use of double negatives indicates that you think this is the year "when we losted so man well known people"?
By the way, your sig is showing.

The golf player.
And sorry but the reporter show I was watching said Natalie Cole died this year if not late in the end of last year like George Micheal did.
He did impact many people's life even if you did not like him or his lifestyle just like Fidel Castro did for alot of Cuban and people that called him a dictator(evil Angry). But I am not one to judge. Tongue

 Arnold Palmer and Dawn Coe-Jones died in 2016 but I think Jack Nicklaus is still alive.


Yeah the guy who had the drink named after him. Cheesy

I don't know if it is just me but I noticed that alot of people that had a major impact on our lives have died
this year.

Gene Wilder, David Bowie, Natalie Cole, Gordie Howe, Jack Nicolas, Leonard Cohen, the dad from Growing Pains (Alan Thicke).even the new Chekoff from Star trek died so early.

Anymore you can think that meant something in your life at one time? Huh
