I wonder if there are any studies about January and deaths?
Patty, sorry to hear of the passing but it's always nice to hear of a birth.
Did a quick googling of studies - couldn't find Can. data, but in US it's Jan - mostly attributed to more deaths of elderly because of flu, pneumonia, etc. - or just seasonal - winter

I loved the music from The Eagles. I loved that '70s era and they were one of the groups that really defined that time. The created so many of my favorite songs.
There's a movie about them on Netflix called The Eagles.

I loved him on Barney Miller. My parents actually recorded tapesfull of barney Miller episodes, on betamax. I think that betamax and the tapes still work. They're at my Dad's summer cabin and the last time we had them out was about 5 summers ago.
Interesting we just had the Leslie Neilson mixup and Abe Vigoda's death has been wrongly reported multiple times over the years.

He was in his 50s during his Barney Miller Years and looked like he was in his 80s. Makeup, acting and his unique look, I guess.
RIP.
