In Memoriam 1999: Famous Faces We Lost in 1999 

God bless Curtis Mayfield. He was critically injured in 1990 and was left a quadriplegic. He never complained or asked "why me?" and continued to work, even recording an album while laying on his back. The Super Fly album was a welcome addition in my home as a child. Rest easy, sir.

No mention of UK BBC journalist and presenter Jill Dando, murdered 26th April 1999. She was loved in UK 😢

Jean Vander Pyl 1919-1999 (the voice of Wilma Flintstone) was not included😔

R.I.P. Dusty Springfield. Loved her music. Great Singer.

Ellen “grandma Walton” Corby passed away in April of 1999

Dawn Wells once said that during a taping of Gilligans island a guest star walked in the room and he was the most handsome man she had ever seen. His name was Rory Calhoun 4:33.

I was a huge disciple of Stanley Kubrick. When he passed away, it was like a great light had gone out and no one has been able to reignite it. His films will forever stand the test of time.

Carlos Hathcock II Born May 20,1942 Died Feb 22 1999. One of the Greatest Marine Snipers to ever live.

My half brother wasn't famous but we lost him in 1999 as well

Francis Lederer, who played in the 1950s horror movie, "The Return of Dracula," died that yr. He was 99 yrs old.

Brion James wasn’t on list born in 1945 and died in 1999 at age 54 of a heart attack. He was memorable character actor playing a good mix of villains and good guy roles including Blade Runner, 48 Hours, Another 48 Hours, Striking Distance, Tango and Cash, The Fifth Element, Red Scorpion and Red Heat among other action and dramas.

You forgot about Iron Eyes Cody (January 4th, 1999).

Oliver Reed was also famous for "Curse of the Werewolf" 1961 and "Tommy" 1975.

Madeline kahn was also in Mel Brooks' History of the World part one.

Actor Noam Pitlik who played Officer Swanhauser ("Swanny") on Sanford and Son died February 18, 1999 at age 66, He also directed shows like Barney Miller and Taxi. I enjoyed his portrayal of "Swanny", Smitty's partner, on those few episodes. Actress Mabel King who portrayed Mrs. Mabel "Moma" Thomas on the 70s sitcom What's Happening died of diabetes at age 66 on November 9, 1999. She also played the Wicked Witch of the West in The Wiz and sang 'No Bad News'. Actress and comedian Shirley Hemphill who portrayed waitress Shirley Wilson at Rob's Place on What's Happening died of kidney failure on December 10, 1999 at age 52.

The worst year to die. Right before the next century. And most of them died so young sadly.

My wife Rose Marie passed away on October 20, 1999. She was 36 years old and died of an abdominal Aortic aneurysm. She had just returned from "Heavens Gates Hells Flames", and accepted Christ, then died around and hour later while getting ready for bed. She wasn't famous but will be.

Ruth roman appeared in a season of knots landing and appeared a few times in murder she wrote

What about the Victims of Columbine High School on April 20, 1999

Rory Calhoun was not in The Man From The Alamo, that was a Glenn Ford movie. He supported Robert Mitchum in River of no return in 54.

Dana Plato really shocked me then & still shocks me now. Same goes for Demri Parrot & Veronica Lake. The very beautiful women who threw it all away at incredibly young ages..

you forget to do Jean Vander Pyl who was the voice of Wilma Flintstone on the Flintstones died April 10 1999 Lung Cancer Old age 79

Lewis DeWitt tenor statler brothers. Forgotten😊

Iremember EXACTLY where I was when JFK Jr died. I was in a laundromat taking my clothes out of the dryer and over the radio they announced his death. I was stunned and just stood there for a while. Im a huge Kennedy follower. I love that family.

Another mission icon: Donald Mills, last of the singing Mills Brothers (just won an honorary Grammy Award for lifetime achievement, as well as induction to the Vocal Groups Hall of Fame in 1998).

5:08 Long live to Owen Hart. Legendary wrestler. ❤

Forget the guy who played q on James Bond series. He was hit by a car and died

Cancer or heart issues, for most of us that's how the end will come.

Walter Payton. Sweetness.

Nicely done

This dude never misses one wrestler.

People of the last century

You can forget about Michael Jordan being the NBA G.O.A.T. That mantle has to go to Wilt Chamberlain, who had a few quintuple-doubles (points, rebounds, assists, blocked shots, steals). Wilt and MJ had a big argument about who was the greatest. At the end, they stood up and when Wilt looked down at MJ stated, "When you played, they changed the rules to make it easier for you to dominate. When I played, they changed the rules to make it harder for me to dominate." Jordan had no comeback to that argument.

Sir Dirk Bogarde died may 8 1999. He was England's first pinup actor. Behan career in 1947 and was for years the biggest actor in England.

What about Desmond llewelyn?

You have the wrong Rob Fisher in your video. There was a Rob Fisher who was a conductor and you have the 2 confused. The one who died in 1999 was a singer/songwriter and keyboard player who was part of the duo Naked Eyes with Pete Byrne and he was also a part of the duo Climie Fisher with Simon Climie. Naked Eyes had hits with “There’s Always Something There To Remind Me” and “Promises,Promises.” Climie Fisher had a big hit called “Love Changes Everything.”

You received a like for the closing comment. Thank you.

Before hosting The Match Game Gene Rayburn hosted a children's game show "Choose Up Sides" which also was the first Johnny Gilbert announcing venture.

Thank you.

Art Farmer did a Jazz Ensemble at Nassau Community College back in 1986.

Muito perfeito o video. Muitas saudades dos que ja partiram e deixaram a sua linda historia.

Also, David Strickland, best known for playing on "Suddenly Susan" in the late 1990s, passed away on March 22, 1999. A suicide victim at the too young age of 29. A once-promising career cut short.

I love Star Trek the original

Wilt still has the all time scoring record😅

Dana Plato was in high school USA as well opposite Michael J Fox Nancy mackeon and a host of actors and actresses from CBS sitcoms love Anthony Fed ex lol

In regard to Stanley Kubrick, you FORGOT to include the movie, "FULL METAL JACKET".

Any list of NBA superstars MUST include Wilt Chamberlain!

Actress Sylvia Sidney died July 1. You’d recognize her from “Beetlejuice” although she had a long career.

Thinking of them is a form of ressurection

Huntz Hall O Anjo de Cara Suja ❤❤❤

No mention of Buster Merryfield, aka uncle albert, only fools and horses

Richard Kiley and George C. Scott have half a century careers. And Wilt the Slit will be long remember as "the big dipper".

I really don't know and don't understand why are wrestling individuals are displayed here and not any scientists contributing in health that we have lost during the years.

all missed the millennium. Mind you so did I I was ill.

Remember, veteran character actor, Ross Elliot passed away in 1999 at age 78. Another character actor, Penny Stenton passed away at age 83.

Heaven is for Heroes, R.I.P.

Damn, slow it down, way too quick of a transition

Also in 1999, singers Guy Mitchell and Helen Forrest and former ABC president, Leonard Goldstein passed away.

I was starting high school at the time

Desmond Llewelyn ... Desmond Wilkinson Llewelyn (Welsh: [ɬɛˈwɛlɪn]; 12 September 1914 - 19 December 1999) was a Welsh actor. He was best known for his role as Q ...

On The Secret Squirrel Show Peggy Cass voiced Winsome Witch.

U forgot Shirley Hemphill

You forgot the great Big Babd vocalist Helen Forrest

4:51 R.I.P. sweet Dana Plato. Wish she could have hung on a bit longer. (R.I.P. her son also). :(🕯💔

Actor Brion James wasn't on the list

Lots of wrestlers!

Ok, so you could include Michael Larson, but leave off Peter Tomarken from the 2006 video? What a crock!!!!!

two more singing cowboys died in 1999 after two in 1998 bad years for cowboys

My friend got murdered 3 months after we graduated in 1999

R.I.P Walter Payton.

you missed Candi Candido

Many of us Remember Hoyt Axton as Rand Peltzer from Gremlins (1984). Who was that masked man?

How many people are likely to have any idea who Lili St Cyr is?? A stripper doesn't really fit the criteria for these videos, with possibly the exception of Gypsy Rose Lee. At least she was famous!

Why celebrate monarchs? To get where they were, they just needed to come out of the right birth portal. Anyone could have done as well in a life filled with that many advantages. I could not be less impressed.

Also left out Joe DiMaggio's son.

Don't forget the rapper Big L he was murdered in 1999

лайк

Kubrick didnt make it to 2001

Left out Carolyn Bessette's sister.

Seems from the comments you missed a lot of people. Pretty sloppy work there mate.

You forgot about the victims of Columbine High School!
