Was an American football coach. He served as the head coach of the Miami Dolphins and Oakland Raiders of the National Football League (NFL) and is the only NFL head coach to have led a team to the playoffs the year following a one-win season and only the second to conduct a ten-game turnaround, both of which he accomplished in his first season with the Dolphins he was fired by the Dolphins in December 2011 after a disappointing season. Was the offensive line coach for the Minnesota Vikings from 2016 until his death age 56.

Former CEO of FCA and Ferrari. He was responsible for Ferrari's return to prominence in F1 in recent years. As a life long Tifosi, It was sad to hear that he never woke up from a operation that performed last week to help him with his invasive shoulder sarcoma after complications.

Mary Ellis, the last of the female "ferry pilots" of WW2 has died, aged 101.

She was a member of the Air Transport Auxiliary (ATA), which employed civilians to deliver planes from factories to airfields during the Second World War. One of the "unsung heroes" of the era..

It appears she took her own life. Makes me very sad that someone with so much in front of her, had so many problems that she could not overcome, for whatever reasons, brigs the curtain down way before time. RIP kidder.

Fire Inspector Jeremy Stoke of the Redding, California Fire Department, along with a so far un-named bulldozer operator have lost their lives fighting wildfires in the area around their city.

A sad loss of life of those "doing what they do" to protect the lives and property of others...

Condolences to the families, friends and colleagues of the fallen.

Knock off, make up and return home station brothers.

RIP..
