There have been a lot of sad celebrity passings lately, and one really can’t place significance on one over another, however we are deeply saddened by the loss of Tim Curry. Many will think of Rocky Horror Picture Show or Wild Thornberries, but the aura and reach of Tim Curry’s work is unprecedented.
