2016 as with any other years has seen many deaths but the ones that are getting noticed are those of celebrity. It has many wanting to fast forward to the new year. However if they were to think seriously about the request, they would know that deaths will come in the new year too. The sad part is that people are missing the depression that comes with the lost of a loved one. We as fans do feel a loss of a celebrity but not in the sense of those in the personal circle. Their void is much different that those of the fans. They knew them before the world did. Shared the struggle before the lime-lights shined on them. The regular people who choose to stand on the sidelines and applaud. We do the same for our families just with no notoriety. At some point in our lives we will experience losing a grandmother, grandfather, mother, father, sister, brother, son, daughter, aunt, or uncle. Some of us may get over the death of the person quickly and others may be forever stuck in the absence of their presence.
