NYT obit for John Warnock.

Bray Wyatt, pro wrestler. He was 36.

During his time in WWE, he was a three-time world champion, including one WWE Championship and two Universal Championships.

Karol Bobko, astronaut. He was the first pilot of the Challenger. He flew two more shuttle missions (on Atlantis and Discovery).

“Bo was a commander who could lead without ever getting angry with people or raising his voice,” Dr. Hoffman, now a professor of aerospace engineering at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, said by phone. “He didn’t have to prove he was the boss to get our respect.”

Hersha Parady, actress. Other credits include “The Waltons”, “Bearcats!”…

…and “Mannix”. (“Cry Silence”, season 6, episode 2, credited as “Receptionist”.)
