Such sad news. My heart breaks for her family and especially for Carrie's brother Todd who has now lost a Sister and Mother in a matter of days.

Rest In Peace, Debbie. Thanks for the repeated smiles and laughter you gave me in Singin' In The Rain, Bundle of Joy, and the Halloweentown series. Thank you so much.
Say hi to Carrie for us.

This whole 2016 grim reaper thing is getting ridiculous. January 1 is just a marker. Can we not mourn people as they pass? Blaming the year is doing their lives a disservice. RIP Carrie Fisher and now her mother Debbie Reynolds.

Yep! Debbie was my favorite part of the movies.
And now Debbie Reynolds. RIP.
I have it on good account from my mother, who lost her only son to cancer last year, that there's nothing worse than losing a child.
My mom, who is 2 years younger than Debbie Reynolds, had a year to come to grips with it and she's a wreck. Poor Debbie suffered an unexpected loss, so although I'm very very very sad to hear of her passing (the shock likely caused it), I'm not really surprised.
Sorry if that sounds callous. The odd thing is that although I have no children myself I am very sympathetic to the enormity of losing a child.

Same.
It's not that we are blaming the year, we are just recognizing that within the past year a lot of pain, heartbreak, loss, and intense aggravation has been experienced. On personal levels, national levels, and international levels.This whole 2016 grim reaper thing is getting ridiculous. January 1 is just a marker. Can we not mourn people as they pass?

Well, there have been many other deaths than celebrities. Allepo, being just one of many examples, comes to mind.

Yeah, being in her 80s, her body probably just couldn't handle the physical symptoms of the shock. Sad.

I cannot imagine what Todd and Billie are going through right now, in addition to other family members.

That's what I'm referring to. Allepo, the floods in the American south (including my hometown), the Orlando shooting, the plane crashes, the terrorist attacks, etc. It's been a long an rough year for almost every citizen on this planet.
And Billie modeled her character on Scream Queens has a homage to her mother's Leia fame. I cannot imagine what she is going through.

I happen to work at the hospital Reynolds passed in... I saw lots of news station vans surrounding the hospital today while running an errand and didn't know why they had been there. Now it all makes sense.
God bless the entire family, friends, and fans. May He grant them peace, understanding, and strength.
Rest, now, Carrie Fisher, Debbie Reynolds, and every single other person who lost their lives this year.

Very nicely said.
