You may not know his name, but if you're a man, you know his appearances in several (seven actually) Clint Eastwood movies including High Plains Drifter and Every Which Way But Loose.
Cantu had wowed diners with his edible menus, carbonated fruit and a fish preparation that cooked before your eyes in a tabletop polymer box, but his ambitions went beyond culinary pleasures. Citing as inspiration his family’s homelessness while growing up in the Pacific Northwest, Cantu presented food and science as a way to solve the world’s problems, particularly hunger.
His now-shuttered restaurant iNG and recently opened coffee shop Berrista emphasized the miracle berry, a fruit that makes sour foods taste sweet and could, in his mind, eliminate the need for sugar while making previously unpalatable ingredients palatable. He started an aeroponic farm inside Moto’s basement and attempted lab work that might lead to the creation of synthetic meat and a vegan egg.

I didn't realize Geoffrey was Juliette Lewis' father.
Yeah, he was all over TV and the movies in the 70's. Had 10 children.

Police said Kemp arrived in Jamaica on a cruise ship but added that they did not have further details.

****
so my grandpa's funeral was today and after the burial, we had lunch back at the church and afterward I helped walk my grandma to the car she was riding in. She looks at me and asks "where's Frankie?", my grandpa's name being Frank.
It was obvious she meant someone else. One of her sons, grandchildren, a friend, I don't know. But she had to say the name of the person who was married to her for pretty much three times as long as I've been alive (one month short of their 60th anniversary).
people say "sorry for your loss to me" and I understand it. I understand what it feels like losing a loved one; it sucks but you keep on chugging. But man, I couldn't imagine being in her shoes.
I'm not a crier but man I almost lost it right there.
