    Dale on The Walkling Dead. I thought that was much more heart wrenching than when Shane died, because at least Dale had his heart in the right place, as opposed to Shane, who was nothing more than the south end of a northbound mule....

    Wait, this is not what we are talking about, is it?

    For me, It was Thurman Munson, back in the 70's. He was the all star catcher for the New York Yankees, and although I did not really pull for the yankees, I liked Munson. He was a hard worker, not a big showboat, and I had his rookie baseball card from 1970. That one hit me hard, because back then, at that age, baseball players were almost superhuman to me.

    I try not to let such things bother me, because so many deaths happen each day and for the most part go un noticed.

    But for me it was Princess Diana. I was only 18 when she had died and she'd been such big thing all my life. She'd done a lot of good.

    I don't think I was upset but the only celebs that made me go oh that's sad is Brittany Murphy - she was young and had started coming out with some movies that weren't just romcoms, and just started getting into her.

    Margaret Thatcher.

    Oh, sorry, misread the question, I thought it was "Which celebrities death made you want to drink yourself stupid into the night in sheer celebration the most".

    My bad ;)

    On December 14, 2012, 20-year-old Adam Lanza fatally shot twenty children at Sandy Hook Elementary School in the village of Sandy Hook in Newtown, Connecticut.
    Anyone of them could have been celebrities.....but we will never know.....my heart still aches for those trusting, innocent souls.....

    Best answer by far.
    So young, so innocent. So much potential and life left to live. THIS breaks my heart.

    ^^Yes this. There were heroes in the form of teachers that day that lost their lives protecting the innocent children they loved as their own.

    I work in a Primary School and we were broken the next day. I can tell you for certain, I work with amazing men and women and we are in an often thankless profession. All of us agree, we would have done the same thing. We love those kids as are own.

    I don't get "upset" about celebrities dying in the same way I would if someone I knew died, but there are some that I found sad.

    Jon Lee from Feeder – So sad that he felt suicide was the only way out.

    Bobby Robson – By the time he went, it was pretty inevitable, but it was still sad. Best comment I read at the time: "Bobby Robson didn't lose the battle with cancer. He won it 4-1".

    I agree...all of the innocent children and victims along with those who have died serving and protecting us....as for famous, I would say, Princess Diana, JFK Jr., and Heath Ledger.

    I don't think their deaths really upset me - I feel more shocked than anything because most of them are so young.

    Male: Patrick Swayze
    Female: Audrey Hepburn

    BOTH FABULOUS ACTORS AND STUNNINGLY BEAUTIFUL PEOPLE (body and personality)

    Also:
    Mr Dressup
    The Friendly Giant
    was just in shock when I heard about these two. you feel such an indellable connection to childhood characters and it seems they are immortal, then they die and you realize you've grown up....:sad:

    I've never cried when a celebrity dies but plenty have made me sad. Patrick Swazye, Farrah Fawcett, John Ritter, John Candy and especially Princess Diana ( she was so tortured).

    What I do cry about are lost, kidnapped, abused, or murdered children. No child should die a horrific death by an adult's hand.

    The death of innocents and our men/women in arms are the most tragic. No on should have to die at the hands or neglect of another for ANY reason!

    Amy Winehouse, definitely.

    I was a MAJOR fan of her and her music from 2007 on, and was really hoping she would get herself together and come out with more and more music. I went through a major natural disaster and lost my home in May 2011 and listening to Amy's albums was one source of strength for me during that trying time, and 2 months later hearing she died was just heartbreaking to me.

    Also, John Ritter.
