Found out at Newsweek of the passing of Reuben Klamer, best known for creating the much-loved board game "The Game of Life" at the age of 99. The cause was unclear.

I hadn't heard about this. RIP. The Game of Life was one of my childhood favorite board games.

I agree. I have the High School Edition of the classic game. Here it is.
