DEATH LIST

I guess that today is death day.

Here is the NYTimes annual obit compilation but in a very special way.

The Lives They Lived

You will find familiar names but a lot, not.

There will be standard obit writeups and very witty, clever, admirable and fascinating ways of paying tribute to the ones we lost last year.

Celebrations.

And unmissable, at the end, is watching the pics submitted by readers unload onto the page. Face after face.

We are, indeed, only here for a little time and we will leave transient memories. But still, those are potent those small goodbyes.
