It's hard to believe that Princess Leia is gone. I loved her in all of the Star Wars movies.

Carrie Fisher, rest in peace, may the force always be with you.

Man. Very sad news. Guess she had massive MI, while in-flight.

She had some mental health and substance abuse issues. She was bipolar. I liked her role in The Force Awakens. Anne Marie got me Rogue One 3D tickets for Christrmas. We're going at 3:50 today.

She was/is 13 years (12 years older than me come 01/24) older than me. Does anyone else feel odd when a musician/actor/author etc pass away and they are only a few years old or younger than you? I was 7/8 when Star Wars came out and she would have be 20/21 or so, and back the. It seemed like she was so much older than me.

Yup. She is a year younger than me. It feels very strange.
