RIP Thread for Notable People

George Foreman will be mourned by his five sons from various marriages - George , George, George, George and yes you’ve guessed it George .
All named so that they’d have something in common .
Iconic fighter and barbecue master - R.I.P.
 
Val Kilmer as Doc Holiday in Tombstone is one of my all time favourite movie characters (ignore the complete historical inaccuracy of just about everything in the film). Sure you'd nearly put up with the whole dying from Tuberculosis thing to be that cool.
 
Reading back over his credits, he was in a lot of big films of the time, I'd forgotten that he was in (nothing to do with his acting though).
He tried his best to rescue The Doors but it's a film that time has not been kind to but his performance was note perfect.
 
As a child growing up I'd hear him going on every year about how he was expecting a tough battle from Cork and then his Kerry team would beat the .... out of us. Remarkable man, met him once and he always came across as a genuinely decent man as well.
