John Havlicek (1940 - 2019), Boston Celtics Hall of Famer
John "Hondo" Havlicek is widely considered one of basketball's greatest players, winning eight championships in his 16 seasons with the Boston Celtics. That's close to a record – only two NBA players have more championship wins (and they were Havlicek's Celtics teammates). Drafted by the Celtics in 1962 after playing college ball for Ohio State, Havlicek never played for another team, remaining with the Celtics until his retirement in 1978. He was the team's all-time top scorer, a title he still holds. The Celtics retired his number 17 immediately after his retirement, and he was inducted into the Naismith Memorial Basketball Hall of Fame in 1984.Hi, I'm RAH and I'm a Benaholic.-rah

All of his books held up, unlike some of my other favorite authors in old age (Cherryh, Pratchett).

Yeah, Pratchett turned toward contemporary, topical satire the last several years.
He remains one of my all-time fave writers.Apolyton's Grim Reaper 2008, 2010 & 2011

Life is not measured by the number of breaths you take, but by the moments that take your breath away.

He also hates Texans and Australians, he does diversify." ~ Braindead
