CORNELLUS GURLITT, 81. Recluse whose horde of more than 1400 modernists artworks set off an international uproar over the fate of the trove looted by the Nazis. Died May 6, 2014. And, coming so soon after that recent movie.
JOHN HOUBOLT, 95. NASA scientist whose lunar-orbit rendezvous plan helped land man on the moon in 1969. Died April 15, 2014. His death and the previously mentioned one of William Dana are two of the reasons we were able to get to the Moon and space.
