So in my opinion, 2016 sucked.

In between Brexit, ISIS, Aleppo, the Syrian refugee crisis and many other things, it wasn't a great year. However, this is in no small part due to the RIDICULOUS amount of celebrity deaths we've had in 2016.

I don't do this often, but I feel like doing a little remembrance thread for those we've lost this year. These are in no particular order, and no importance is implied based on positions:
