Oscar-winng makeup artist Greg Cannom (Mrs. Doubtfire) died; he was 73.
I didn't know him by name, but I sure recognize a lot of his Ravenloft art.Stephen Fabian, TSR illustrator, has passed away. I loved his style and illustrations inside the D&D Gazetteers.
It's always depressing when someone so young passes away. That heat is no joke though. I remember moving to Texas after living in Germany and Colorado and the heat and humidity was just oppressive.

I will say, to the coaches credit he didn't berate me when I asked for some water. Some of the other players scoffed at me, but I guess he understood that if I was asking for water I really, really needed it.I almost became a football-related August heat stroke statistic in Texas, too.

To my coach’s credit, he IDed my issue and immediately called for the trainers to get me into the shade, out of my shoulder pads, and drinking water.I will say, to the coaches credit he didn't berate me when I asked for some water.
