Welcome to The List,
Death Comes in Threes? Maggie Smith from “Harry Potter”, John Ashton from “Beverly Hills Cop”, and Kris Kristofferson…depending on who you arbitrarily decide to count. But we basically suffered three MAJOR losses: Maggie her latest roll was as Professor Minerva McGonagall. She was 89 years old, and there’s no word on the cause of death. John Ashton was best known . . . and let’s be honest, he was kind of ONLY known . . . for playing Detective Sergeant John Taggert in the “Beverly Hills Cop” movies. He died Thursday after a brief battle with cancer. He was 76. Country music legend Kris Kristofferson passed away peacefully Saturday at his home in Hawaii, surrounded by family. No cause of death was given. He was 88 years old.
