I've *loved* Redford since I was a kid and saw The Way We Were and have followed him closely my whole life. And Goodall? My goodness, what a woman! Her netflix interview!! As others have said, I want to live in a world where the flag is lowered for Goodall.

Thanks, Jan. I haven't seen the Netflix interview with Goodall, but will try now on your recommendation. I was always sort of relieved to know both Redford and Goodall were still on our planet...And now Diane Keaton, one of my favorite actors who also did lots of good in the world in addition to her performances.

Yes, it feels odd being the age where those we’ve admired for decades are dying 😔

I agree...both Robert Redford's and Jane Goodall's legacies are so vast and have touched so many different facets of everything from environmentalism to film that it boggles the mind; thank heavens they both lived to ripe old ages!

Anti-vaccine parents are playing with fire and I think they are self centered loonies...but then look at our current administration with RFK jr. and the orange menace and you have looney tunes to the max; neither believe in science based facts and it's only going to get worse before it gets better, if it gets better......

It's super hard to process all of these losses on top of what else is going on in our country.
