I hope my thread title is self-explanatory. I’ll start, then everyone join in!
Obviously, these should be for celebrities who are not yet dead:
For Ray Stevens: Say It Isn’t So, Ethel!
For Ray Romano: Everyone Loved Him…to Death
For Ronald Reagan: Bedtime.
For Carol Burnett: I’m So Glad We Had This Time Together
Arnold Schwarzenneger: I Won’t be Back.

Don McLean : Bye, Bye Mister American Pie
Shirley MacLaine, however: I’ll be Back.
The Washington’s Post’s Style Invitational ran a contest along similar lines last year. A few of my favorites
**Tiger Woods at Six Under
Clinton Doesn’t Inhale
Chevy Chase Is Dead and You’re Not
and the classic
Wouldn’t ‘Dave Barry Is Toast’ Be a Great Name for a Rock Band?**
The Post’s contest allowed you to use people who are already dead. Anyone else feel a little bit creepy about this thread? Some of Eve’s pre-death posts have been a little too close for comfort.

Does anyone else remember the episode of SNL that Dana Carvey hosted a few years back, where he did a skit of Peter Jennings recording soundbytes about Gerald Ford “just in case”, before he went on vacation?
“Gerald Ford eaten by wolves today… he was delicious.”
