This happened a week ago (Nov 20) but I just this morning saw the obit on Sylvia Browne, the fraudulent so-called "psychic." She had previously predicted that she would live to 88, but died at age 77, which is in line with her prediction track record.
I know you're not supposed to speak ill of the dead, but I can think of nothing good to say about this vulture who became fabulously wealthy by preying on vulnerable and grief-stricken people. She charged rates for telephone "consultations" that would make Wall Street lawyers blush. Despite being consistently, demonstrably wrong, her followers refused to see the truth and continued to fill her coffers.
