    Why is it that obits that include "a [insert profession], primarily to aging but still fiery female stars" never include the names of the deceased's wife and children?

    @Nice Beaver: The phrase you're searching for is "survived by two Persian cats and a Yorkie."

    "In his memoir, he called himself 'something of a boulevardier.'"

    Great. Now I can't decide if I want to be a gadabout or a boulevardier.

    The Washington Post’s obituary has some delicious catty quotes from his autobiography, including his sneer that Katharine Hepburn hadn’t brushed her hair in 15 years when he saw her. (She rejected his offer to write her autobiography.) And his partner’s name was Granville McGee. Excellent stuff. Rest in peace, you crazy old hat.
