Thank you. I was hesitating to post the facebook source but back when I submitted there was no other coverage.

HN guidelines prefer the original source when possible, so you did the right thing IMHO.

Ok, we'll use that above, since it has so much more information. (Submitted url was https://www.facebook.com/davidlynchofficial/posts/it-is-with....)

Another relevant link people may want to look at:

Looks like NYT haven't published their full obituary yet.

Oh damn haha, a good example I suppose that "guidelines" aren't meant to be hard rules :-)

At the bottom of the last link it says "a full obituary will be published soon". But it seems they've done so now: https://archive.ph/vyxDJ.
