Dianne Feinstein, a United States senator since 1992 and San Francisco mayor from 1978-1988 passed away on September 28h, 2023 at age 90.

Wrong date, she passed away this morning on the 29th from natural causes at her home in Washington, D.C., according to Wikipedia. 

Feinstein received many tributes from politicians such as Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer; Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell; President Joe Biden; Vice President Kamala Harris; former presidents Barack Obama and Bill Clinton; House Speaker Kevin McCarthy; former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi; former Secretary of State and senate colleague Hillary Clinton; fellow Senators Alex Padilla, Marco Rubio, Susan Collins, Kristen Gillibrand, Patty Murray, Rick Scott, Josh Hawley, Lindsey Graham, and Chuck Grassley; Representatives Barbara Lee, Adam Schiff, and Katie Porter, who are running for Feinstein's senate seat in the 2024 election; and California Governor Gavin Newsom, who is expected to appoint Feinstein's replacement. He had previously promised to appoint a black woman.

Her death marked the first time an active senator had died since John McCain died in 2018 from brain cancer. 

Rest in Peace (1933-2023) Gone but not Forgotten. I just saw that on YT few minutes ago.

Suzanne Somers at age 77

The first celebrity crush for many young Gen X boys growing up.

Good timing, a day before her 77th birthday. Her family were gathered for her birthday, so they were already there. It's still sad, but convenient for those near to her.

A friend of mine told me of her uncles funeral in Ireland. Her dad was one of the pallbearers. Her dad had a sudden and fatal heart attack right there, with all the friends and family already gathered. Again, sad circumstances, but convenient that everyone was there. Those from out of town just lengthened their stay for her dads funeral / wake.

R.I.P. Ms. Somers (1946-2023), at the final day at 76 years old before turning 77 years old tomorrow and she will have a heavenly birthday when she gets to heaven from time to eternity. Gone but will never be forgotten and may her soul rest in peace. 

Back to this one guys, I researched it on the Google that she was an American actress, author, singer, businesswoman, and health spokesperson. She appeared in the television role of Chrissy Snow on Three's Company and as Carol Foster Lambert on Step by Step.

How many cast members of 3's Company and Step by Step are left now?
