Famous people who you are perhaps surprised died quite some time ago
I've just found out that Fat Larry, of Fat Larry's Band, of "Zoom" fame, died of a heart attack in 1987, aged 38.

Gram Parsons died in 1973; I thought he was either still alive or died about five years ago. He hasn't even been alive since I was born.

Janet Brown isn't alive - she died 10 years ago!

Actually, I've always got mixed up between Janet Brown and Faith Brown. I think they're one of those examples where I've always thought they were the same person.

Sam Brown's mother and wife of Joe Brown, Vicki Brown, who we saw as a prominent backing singer on Sam's appearances on Top of the Pops 1989 singing "Stop!", died just two years later in 1991 of breast cancer, aged 50.

Vicki Brown also had a solo career in her own right and did backing vocals for loads of other famous acts.

George Gershwin died in 1937, aged 38; I know he's a name from decades ago but I presumed he died in the 60s or even 70s.

I couldn't think if Clarissa Dickson Wright of "Two Fat Ladies" chef fame was still alive or not - and she died in 2014, 10 years ago!

Some of my earliest memories of Neighbours are of Max Ramsay. The actor who played him died - in 1994! He "fell from a building".
