I am starting this thread because I was reading another thread and saw the name of a very dear friend. It said he had died many years ago. Although I knew it was not true it was still very upsetting. I don't understand why anyone would post someone's name as dead if they're not dead. Please verify your facts before posting them.

"The reports of my death are greatly exaggerated"

The text of a cable sent by Mark Twain from London to the press in the United States after his obituary had been mistakenly published.
