Old Enough To Die

The recent death of actress Diane Keaton has me upset for two reasons. One, she died. And two, she was 79, which is my age exactly. According to the outpouring of grief online, many people are mourning her passing, saying she was taken from us too soon and wondering what was the cause of her death. But many others are saying, "Hey, she was 79, and that's pretty old. That's almost 80! And that's when you can die for no reason other than old age, so everyone should just accept it and move on."  

I hope I last long enough to finish writing this post. Anyway, I would like to put the following celebrities on alert, all of them also born in 1946 and thus old enough to die for no reason:
