Fred Phelps. Will his family be making distasteful protests at his funeral?

Bald Bloke Posted Mar 20, 2014
No but I bet there are some groups planning on returning past favours.
Although I would think that the best thing to do would be to pointedly ignore the whole thing, rather than lowering themselves to the Phelps level.

His family, which is to say his church, actually excommunicated him a while ago. So maybe they ~will~ picket his funeral.

Alas, no funeral to picket.
"Margie Phelps, a daughter and church member, told WIBW-AM in Topeka Thursday that there will be no funeral."

The best suggestion I've seen to "picket" his funeral would be to gather and stand peacefully and then lay a flower on the grave to show that people can rise above his kind of hate-filled idiocy.

That's a good obit, Pastey.
Sho, the best way to remember him and his ilk IMO is to advocate and vote for universal civil rights.

Mickey Duff, boxing promoter and manager, dies at 84.
He'd worked with some of the biggest names in British boxing, such as Frank Bruno, Joe Calzaghe and John Conteh.

Kate O'Mara has died, aged 74.
Of Dynasty (dysentery) fame, as well as Howard's Way and Triangle, both water-based series and all three featuring wealth!
To many on this site, though, she'll probably be best rembered for her Dr. Who role as The Rani, with Colin Baker and Bonnie Langford.

Blimey I had no idea she was that old?
I remember her most from Dynasty and Triangle I have to say.

I remember her on the Onedin Line. I believe she played the harp in the theme tune for that too.

Now there was great TV show.
Unmatched until Sharpe came along.
BTW:
The Not-On-The-List list seems to have missed two former
Dr Who directors who have died this year.
Or were they on someone's list?
