R.I.P.
I'm a little confused. She passed away over two years ago to my knowledge, in 2018. Has she secretly been alive for this whole time?

Her funeral was all over TV a few years ago. Maybe a repeat performance?

Suddenly, I felt out of the loop.

Certainly, she deserves the r-e-s-p-e-c-t that we remember, at least, when she passed.


And what in the world is her much belated death announcement doing in the ALL SPORTS area?

Fake news. Gil McDougal was rookie of the year.
