Heath Ledger
When the news broke in 2008 that Heath Ledger had passed away from cardiac arrest that was brought on by prescription drug intoxication – my heart broke. As did many hearts all over the globe. Ledger was an admired actor and we got to see him in his final role as the Joker in the film Batman. His final words were to his sister, Katie, “Katie, Katie, look…it’ll be fine, you know, I just need to get some sleep.”

Benjamin Franklin
You could say that old Benjamin Franklin was a pretty important person. Franklin would die at the age of 84 but he would go out with his wit and sarcasm on display. After being told to rotate in order to more easily breathe Franklin responded, “A dying man can do nothing easy.” He would die shortly thereafter, leaving behind a legacy more important than most can even fathom.
