James Avery, American actor, comedian and poet best known as Uncle Phil in The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air, died from complications following open heart surgery. He was 68.

Edit: My mistake, his death was in 2013.

Should we retire this thread and make a 2018 thread?

I would have done that myself, if Bruce McCandless's passing was yesterday or today.

I'll leave the thread open for those we learn of well after the fact. But yes, once it is needed, we'll have a new thread.

RIP Bill Lishman, who passed away on December 30.

The movie Fly Away Home was a dramatized version of Bill Lishman's greatest achievement.

And here's another well-after-the-fact notice. Jane Norman, better known to children of a certain generation (like mine) as Pixanne, passed away at her home in Bala Cynwyd, Pennsylvania on May 13, 2017, aged 83.
