The Stiffs for 2017

For the 23rd year running, we present our fondest farewells to the recently departed.

If they were on any lists — or if they mattered at all in the world — you'll find them here.

If you're looking for everybody, then you need to head on over to the Directory.

Barbara Sinatra · 89

He joins Gene Gene The Dancing Machine in that great green room in the sky.

Jerry Krause · 77

April 6th, 1939 - March 21st, 2017
