If you designed the X-wing, TIE fighter and star destroyer, you left an indelible mark on sci-fi:
Star Wars spacecraft designer Colin Cantwell dies aged 90 - BBC News
He was a great actor. I know Goodfellas was one of his best known roles, but I really liked him in Field Of Dreams, especially the line about Ty Cobb.

Andy "Fletch" Fletcher of Depeche Mode has died. He was only 67 years old, but his influence and creativity for the band meant more than just about anything else.

Yeah Nichelle Nichols and Bill Russell. Jeebus.
I didn't realize, as a non-basketball person, exactly how much of a championship player Bill Russell was until I started reading the obits. He was the Jean Beliveau of basketball!
I have to confess I wasn't aware of how statistically dominant he was either. 21 - 0 in "winner take all" games, including NBA game 7 championships, NCAA college basketball championships, and Olympic gold medal games. I don't know of any athlete in any sport more successful.
