Obituary Fail!

Gary Coleman, passed away yesterday!

On the right is a screen capture from the Himalayan times epaper edition mentioning the star’s passing away. (I saw it yesterday in print).

Gary Coleman passes away

Figured they might have corrected the news in the e-paper, but i guess its too much too expect of them.

Was it an editorial mistake?

Did a layouts person (unintentionally) snip off a very important P before it went to press? or

Did “someone” make an attempt at a very bad joke?

It does make for a very bad obituary/condolence message.

I remember Gary as the little black kid who says ”What cha talking about Willis?” every time he suspects foul play by his brother on Diff’rent Strokes (the sitcom). My little sister impersonated the same dialogue when similar situations arose between us siblings.

Gary’s cameo appearances in movies were always refreshing.

RIP Gary Coleman!
