Actor Francesco Quinn collapses and dies
http://www.usatoday.com/life/people/obit/2011-08-08-francesco-quinn_n.htm

MALIBU, Calif. (AP) — Authorities say actor Francesco Quinn, the son of Academy Award-winner Anthony Quinn, has died. He was 48.

Los Angeles County sheriff's Lt. James Royal says Quinn was walking home from a store with his son when he collapsed Friday on the Malibu street where he lived.

His agent, Arlene Thornton, tells the Los Angeles Times that Quinn apparently died of a heart attack but the cause of death hasn't been officially determined.

4. God, People seem to be dropping like flies lately. It seems like
everytime I check on to the site there is another obituary. They're all sad,but this is one of the largest clusters I have seen in a while.

I wonder if people are just losing thier will to keep going with all the terrible news(not to imply that these deaths aren't physical and natural, but that maybe some of these people would have hung on longer if they had some hope for the world).
