Oh wow, for some reason I thought he was older.

Like 100?
Willard Scott's tradition of recognizing viewers turning age 100 or older is being carried on

Ah darn, I (like everyone else) had no idea he had been battling cancer for so long.

I loved Norm MacDonald in the late 90's as Burt Reynolds in SNL's version of Celebrity Jeopardy

R.I.P. Norm MacDonald.

One of the best comedians ever!

Apparently Norm would defend Christianity against the Hollywood snakes. He was a seeker for sure.

by BaleMaster Thu Sep 16, 2021 6:11 am

He claimed to be a Christian, so I will classify him as *MORE* than just a seeker. Wink

I hope he was… but if you watch the whole video I posted, he has flipped a few times. He was also a Jewish convert for a year too. He had answered some questions as not being sure if there is a God (but he hopes there is).

That’s why I said “seeker”. But I hope his final decision was faith in Christ. I have more reason to believe he did than didn’t. Smile

Gotcha. Caught only part of the video. Wink

Trust me, I hope he was! At least he had publicly professed to be in his later years.

Not a high profile person, but I just found out that Dean Kohn passed away from Covid. At one time he was supposed to front Barren Cross. It lasted all but a week or so.

So sad to hear about Justin's failing health recently. A Christian rock legend has passed.

by Staybrite Tue Sep 28, 2021 3:30 pm

So very bummed to hear about Justin's passing. I'm sure his family must be devastated.
