Now I'm really sick, with an attitude that 2016 is (still) out to "get" me.
Unbearably soon after the death of her daughter, Carrie Fisher, actress Debbie Reynolds has died at the age of eighty-four, apparently from a stroke brought on by the stress of her daughter Carrie's death.
I've been a fan of Debbie Reynolds' from the moment I was able to attach a name to that actress on the screen. Like everyone else (it seems), I loved her in movies like Singin' in the Rain, but I loved lesser-known efforts such as Goodbye Charlie and Susan Slept Here as well. And it was a particular treat to see her teamed with Albert Brooks in 1996's Mother.
She had it all: talent, looks, class.... So often in these little tributes of mine, I write "he (or she) will be missed," but for me, it's especially true in this case.

Thanks for your time.
