Loss of Singerly volunteer, 22, deemed “Line of Duty Death”

April 21, 2022

Elkton, MD — Singerly Volunteer Fire Company unexpectedly lost one of its own Saturday.

Trevor McNabb was just 22 and died in his sleep after working a shift at the Elkton fire company as assistant EMS chief, then going to his paying job at St. Francis Hospital EMS in Wilmington.

“He got off work, went home and went to bed,” said Robert Muller, 1st vice president, director, EMS captain and paramedic for Singerly.

Muller said the results of the autopsy are not out yet but Singerly members participated in the tradition Tuesday of escorting his body from the medical examiner to the funeral home.

Because his death happened within 24 hours of being on duty, McNabb’s death is counted as a “line of duty death.” This means he died as a result of that service.

Robert “Bob” Dietrich is remembered by friends and colleagues as a charismatic, creative, and kind person whose effervescent energy charged up any room he was in. Dietrich, senior associate vice president of university advancement at Northeastern, died unexpectedly earlier this year. He was 63.

“Above all else, Bob loved people—connecting with alumni, spending time with students and their families, participating in events that were important to his colleagues—he cherished the relationships that come with this business,” Diane N. MacGillivray, senior vice president for university advancement, wrote in a message to the members of the university community.

“An elegant and erudite representative for Northeastern, his passion and persistence, relentless optimism, and a stubborn inability to hear ‘no’ made him a stellar fundraiser. The depth of his care for everyone with whom he interacted made him an irreplaceably good person. His loss is professional. It is also profoundly personal,” she wrote.

A loss for women, and an example

April 22, 2022

A great woman died suddenly just after Easter Sunday. Vicki Thorn was the founder of Project Rachel, a post-abortion healing ministry.

“She was a voice for us when we were not able to speak yet,” said Theresa Bonapartis, who had an abortion and now works with women who have done the same. “She heard us when others did not want to listen and definitely opened the door of healing in the Church.” Project Rachel and other ministries like Bonapartis’s Lumina are internationally active now, but that’s because Thorn started the essential work.

Debra Stark, founder of Debra’s Natural Gourmet, dies at 75

April 25, 2022

Debra Stark had more in mind in 1989 than simply launching a store where shoppers could find healthy foods, though Debra’s Natural Gourmet in West Concord became far more successful than she could have imagined in those challenging early months.

Ms. Stark, whose business drew praise from national publications and won awards, died last Monday in Emerson Hospital in Concord, two days after she had a heart attack. She was 75 and lived in Acton.

“Up to the last minute her life was vibrant and full of things she was proud of,” said her son Adam, who co-owns the business.

A full month after she “died suddenly” after running the LA Marathon, still no cause of death reported:

Woman Who Died After the L.A. Marathon is Remembered for Her Service; Trisha Paddock, 46, of Ranchos Palos Verdes died on March 20 after participating in the marathon to raise funds for the Asian American Drug Abuse Program

April 20, 2022

On March 20, Ryan Paddock had been sitting in his car waiting for his wife Trisha to finish the last mile of the Los Angeles Marathon when he got a phone call.

“Either the CEO or somebody from the L.A. Marathon called to let me know that I needed to go to the nearest emergency room,” Ryan, 44, told Los Angeles during a recent phone interview.

Trisha, 46, was a veteran participant of full and half marathons, as well as a former Miss Asian America, with no medical problems as far as she and Ryan knew.

He was later informed that Trisha’s heart had stopped after she crossed the finish line of the 13.1-mile run, and that doctors were trying to resuscitate her.

Trisha never regained consciousness. She was pronounced dead at 9:42 p.m.

Her sudden death was a surprise to everyone close to her. She had participated in the long-distance Ragnar Relay twice and had taken part in at least three other half and full marathons before the L.A. Marathon.

The Torrance native, who spent most of her childhood in Redondo Beach, was the person in their family of five who encouraged everyone to practice healthy habits. It was Trisha’s weekend ritual to walk at least six to ten miles every Saturday. As a young adult, she had played competitive volleyball. Trisha, who was Polynesian, had also participated in several beauty pageants and was crowned Miss Asian America in 1993. She also received an athletic scholarship to American University, but later dropped out to go on a missionary trip to Cape Town, South Africa, where she met Ryan in 1997.

She was on my case about being in better shape and health conditions,” Ryan told Los Angeles. “It’s interesting. I almost feel like she was so endurance-driven that eventually that battery just runs out. Like she could go-go-go-go-go and it’d be no problem.”

Trisha’s death also stunned marathon organizers because it was the first related to the L.A. Marathon since 2007, when a 50-year-old man who had participated in the L.A. Bike Tour in conjunction with the race died after going into cardiac arrest, according to the Los Angeles Fire Department.

No cause of death reported.

Declan O’Brien Dies: Wrong Turn Sequels Director Dead At 56

Van Halen manager Noel E. Monk has reportedly died

April 20, 2022

Former Van Halen manager and one-time Sex Pistols tour manager Noel E. Monk has died.

From 1979 through 1985, Monk served as the manager for the Pasadena, California group, and, in the year prior, he worked with Van Halen as their tour manager in 1978, the same year the group quickly began climbing the ladder of success on the back of their breakout self-titled debut album.

News of Monk’s passing has lightly filtered through social media as friends and peers of Monk’s have paid tribute to him and an active estate sale in Colorado Springs, where Noel was known to live in recent years, appears to indicate that the former band manager has indeed passed.

Two die in mysterious plane crash:

Two killed after plane crashes near Georgia General Mills factory

April 22, 2022

Covington, Ga. — Two people were killed when a small plane has crashed near a General Mills plant about 35 miles east of Atlanta, officials confirmed.

“Obviously this was a devastating crash and there are no survivors,” Covington police Capt. Ken Malcom said Thursday night, according to The Atlanta Journal-Constitution.

Crews had recovered one body as of late Thursday night, Fox 5 Atlanta reported.

“We are working on a lead to determine who the victims were in the crash,” Malcom said, adding it was a relief the incident did not hit the cereal manufacturer’s plant close by. “The fact that it didn’t crash into the plant, saved many lives.”

According to witnesses, the plane had departed from Covington Municipal Airport around 6:45 p.m., police said, according to the outlet.

Suddenly the plane veered to the right, and immediately came straight down and crashed into the lot behind us,” Malcom said. The crash sent a plume of black smoke overhead, authorities and local news reports said.

There were no immediate reports of any injuries to anyone on the ground.

Covington police told local reporters the aircraft crashed in an isolated parking lot near an industrial plant just off Interstate 20, a major east-west artery in Georgia.

“We don’t have additional information at this time,” said the FAA statement. It said the FAA and the National Transportation Safety Board are investigating.

April 25, 2022

New York: An 18-year-old Indian high school student drowned in a pond in the US state of New Jersey after diving into the frigid water to retrieve a soccer ball for children playing nearby, according to media reports.

Clinten G Ajit, from Niranam in Kerala, went into Hardcastle Pond in New Milford around 7 p.m. on Friday to retrieve the soccer ball and apparently drowned when he suddenly went underwater.

However NJ.com, another digital newspaper quoting police, said emergency officers responded to a call around 7:15 pm that someone went swimming in the pond and did not return. First responders recovered Ajit’s body in about three hours.

“The water went up to his waist. Then it went up to his neck. Then he had his whole, full body in the water,” CBS news channel quoted 10-year-old Sam Rueda, who saw the tragedy unfold with his family, as saying.

“After he put his hands down, that was the last we ever saw of him. Then his friends started to panic,” Sam said.

Borough police confirmed Ajit’s identity late Saturday afternoon.

The Bergen County Medical Examiner’s Office and New Milford Police Department are partnering to determine the cause of death, according to a news release from the borough police department.

Police say his death appears to be an accident.

He dies of a heart attack in the Ruiz Cortines neighborhood of Veracruz

April 21, 2022

This Thursday afternoon a man of approximately 55 years of age died of an apparent sudden heart attack in the streets of the Adolfo Ruiz Cortines neighborhood, where a police mobilization was recorded.

Witnesses indicated that the victim had just got out of his car to enter the home of a friend he used to visit, when he suddenly felt bad and suddenly fainted on the sidewalk.

The unfortunate man had barely parked his white Atos Color car and leaned out of the fence of the place to warn that he had already arrived when those present saw how he suddenly collapsed.

His friends immediately went out and tried to revive him, but seeing that he did not react, they requested the support of the rescue corporations by calling the 911 emergency number.

Emergency medical technicians from the Red Cross tried to provide first aid to Julio César “N” better known as “La Coqueta” but they could only confirm that he no longer had vital signs.

In an interview with The Gleaner his aunt, Latoya Anderson Gilfillian, with whom he has been living for over 10 years, broke down as she recalled the events leading up to his death.

She said that he took sick at school in March and was taken to the hospital ,where he underwent a brain scan. The result was inconclusive, so she said they were sent to Kingston to undergo an MRI.

Before receiving the results, she said, he was due for his ward review; he also did a blood test at the hospital. Gilfillian said. He had an exam on April 5 so he had to go to school.

Later on in the day, she got a call from the teachers at the school that her nephew had again fallen sick.

UNRESPONSIVE

When she visited, she said he was unresponsive. However, after he regained consciousness, she said he started throwing up “black stuff”.

The night before his death she saw him and he called her ‘Aunty P’, not his usual ‘Aunty’, which she pondered and found strange.

Before leaving, she said the doctor told her he had to do an emergency test as they discovered he had a stroke ]but] could not identify what caused it.

“I was like, strokes comes with high blood pressure or something, and they are not seeing anything,” she informed. She said she made the sacrifice and paid for the test, as owing to the condition he was in ,she didn’t want the day to end and he didn’t get the test done.

After praying with him, she went home, and was prepared to visit him the following day.

That day never came, as she was called the following day to visit the hospital, where she was greeted with the news of his passing.

David Gardner, FT journalist, 69

David Gardner, former international affairs editor, Middle East editor and chief leader writer of the Financial Times, who has died suddenly in Dubai at the age of 69, was one of the outstanding international correspondents and commentators of his generation. He also wrote like an angel.

He combined a conviction of the importance of understanding history with a fascination for political intrigue, an impatience with humbug, a love of telling stories, a passion for good causes, a detestation of dictators and an irrepressible sense of humour. His lucid prose made the most complex subjects, from Middle East politics to the European Common Agricultural Policy, easily intelligible to the uninitiated. In the words of Roula Khalaf, FT editor, he managed to combine the best writing on the paper with “passion and integrity”.

Young Vontobel dealer died in office; on Maundy Thursday, in his mid-thirties, he collapsed while working at the family bank. Cause open, suspected heart attack.

April 19, 2022

On the Thursday before the long Easter weekend, a trader at Zurich Bank Vontobel died at work. He was only in his mid-30s, according to several insiders.

The cause of death is suspected to be a heart attack due to the collapse in the middle of the office, according to two sources independently. However, this information is not secured.

What led to the sudden death of the banker therefore remains unclear for the time being. “Vontobel cannot and will not provide any information on the cause of death.”

It is not uncommon for the police to start an investigation for people who die at a young age. Their death is initially classified as extraordinary.

The news of the young man’s death traveled quickly on Thursday. The shock of the tragedy was great inside and outside Bank Vontobel.

The phenomenon of men dying from sudden cardiac arrest after the age of 50 is well known. In recent years there have been repeated reports of managers who passed away early in this way, including during sports.

On the other hand, heart attacks are rare in people in the 30 to 40 age group. A genetic disease that has gone unnoticed up to that point can lead to failure of the heart muscle despite the young age.

Found dead in the river in Montignoso: the hypothesis of illness; the community is shocked by the tragedy of Easter Monday. The results of the autopsy on Riccardo Vietina’s body are awaited

April 20, 2022

Montignoso – It was perhaps an illness that suddenly seized Riccardo Vietina , the disabled 56-year-old man, guest of a facility in Montignoso, found dead in the Versilia river in the early afternoon of the Easter Monday. To discover his body was a passerby, who had noticed him lying in the water, while he was nearby with his dog.

The hypothesis more accredited, relating to the dynamics of the tragedy – which threw the mother, by now inconsolable, into dismay – is that as a consequence of the possible illness Vietina slipped, ending up down.

However, the hypothesis of an accidental fall is also being examined: in fact, man had a passion for nature, art and in particular for the collection and collecting of ‘pebbles’. A false step, thanks to the wet and slippery ground, could have been the cause of the fall and subsequent death, perhaps linked to an illness.

While serving as a volunteer in his residential compound, Meng delivered antigen detection reagents to residents and always took the trouble to demonstrate and explain to elderly people who did not know how to take the test, it reported.

Meng was awarded the title of “Outstanding Communist Party Member” by COMAC, among other honors.

UE Square Izakaya’s Japanese Chef Passes Away After Suffering Brain Haemorrhage At The Gym; Chef Hideyuki Tanaka, 40, was due to sign a contract to open his own restaurant just two days after his untimely death.

April 20, 2022

Mobomoga is an under-the-radar izakaya at UE Square. Popular with Japanese expats and F&B industry insiders, it offers an extensive selection of sake labels paired with tasty, unfussy bar grub. Since late 2019, its kitchen was helmed by Japanese executive chef Hideyuki Tanaka, who suddenly passed away today (Apr 20) following a brain haemorrhage. He was 40.

The Niigata native’s passing was announced in a Facebook post by Mobomoga’s owner Daisuke Tohyama, who said: “It’s hard to accept this news so suddenly, but our colleague Hideyuki Tanaka left us for heaven early [this] morning.

According to Tohyama-san, chef Tanaka had “collapsed suddenly” Sunday afternoon during a workout at the gym. The cause of death was subarachnoid haemorrhage. He was in a brain-dead state, but his heart continued to beat on its own power for more than 63 hours until his family arrived from Japan… You showed us a very strong Hide-san right to the very end!”

Newstalk ZB host Bruce Russell dies suddenly

April 25, 2022

Radio host Bruce Russell is being remembered as a talented newsreader with an “inimitable personality”.

Stuff understands Russell died while at work at the Newstalk ZB central Auckland offices on Sunday night, before he was due to begin his shift on-air.

Newstalk ZB confirmed his death in a statement on Monday morning.

“Bruce Russell, one of our long-time Newstalk ZB hosts, passed away unexpectedly but peacefully last night,” the statement said.

https://www.stuff.co.nz/entertainment/tv-radio/300572498/newstalk-zb-host-bruce-russell-dies-suddenly

From a subscriber:

My favourite Talkback host Bruce Russell died last night. He was on the radio station Newstalk ZB. Of course no one is mentioning the jabs on Talkback. Bruce was pro the jab and encouraged others. He said he’d had two. I don’t know if he had the booster. I can’t give you the dates of his jabs. From memory his last one was a few months ago. I had the impression that very recently he was becoming more open to reports against the jab.

A mysterious accident:

I saw a client yesterday for the first time since before Xmas. She’s jabbed, double jabbed and boosted but got Covid anyway. I told her that my wife and I got Covid without having been jabbed. She said we were lucky to still be alive. What dimbulb.

Heard another story the other day. Fiances co-worker got the jab. Few weeks later he was out for a walk and collapsed. Hospital removed some kind of (clot?) near his spinal cord. They said it could have paralyzed him. I don’t consider myself a popular person that knows a lot of people, but this is the third direct story I have heard from people regarding issues from the jabs.

A blood clot can paralyze you?

Not sure what it was. Story was vague, but it was something near the spinal cord that was causing issues. Guy is overall healthy. Of course the hospital never linked it to the vaxx, but do they ever?

The spinal cord has a blood supply just like all the rest of the body. There are the anterior spinal cord artery and the posterior one.

What’s called a “spinal stroke” can interrupt the blood supply to the spinal cord, if there is a blood clot in one of these spinal cord arteries. It can lead to paralysis. Overall, spinal cord strokes are much less common than strokes in the brain.

Yes, it is known as a fibrocartilaginous embolism . It is usually due to injury.

Thank you for sharing. Prior to this covid jab, ‘died suddenly’ for the under 65 crowd was a once in a 10 million event. Usually that event was a high school athlete that had an unknown congenital defect. I now believe that event has a big Pharma cause; in hindsight.

I wondered if this was really on a dramatic increase or if it’s a Yellow Car scenario.
The other thing is that he isn’t using obituaries he is using news articles. It is probably a lot more prevalent than is being reported.

Yes, we look at the obits in the Sunday paper and for a small town of less than 10 deaths a week, usually 2-3 are “suddenly”.

Jim’s going to need to add a lot of server space to handle how much longer this column is getting every week. Pretty soon its going to take all week just to scroll through it, let alone read it.

“Trevor McNabb was just 22 and died in his sleep after working a shift at the Elkton fire company” so they are calling it an “on-duty death.” I guess technically since he was likely forced to take the jab to keep his job, it was an on-duty death.

And seriously, how high will the bodies need to be piled before the sheep start to take serious notice and connect the dots? Yeah, a rhetorical question….they’ll NEVER connect the dots until someone is dotting the final “i” on their death certificate.

Is the death rate for working age men really 40% higher? I don’t know for sure but the usually lying sources of information are silent about this. To me that gives implies that the reports are credible. We are in deep shit if that trend continues.

% higher?
