| Omnia Vincit Amor (1809) by Benjamin West |
Note the following in regards to a notable person recently added to Wikipedia’s Deaths in 2026 site:
Joy Harmon, 85, American actress (Cool Hand Luke, Village of the Giants, Angel in My Pocket), complications from pneumonia
- Patricia Joy Harmon (May 1, 1940 – April 14, 2026) “ pat joy harm, harmony”
That she was born on May 1… and so a cryptic “May won” is meaningful given that my name is “May”. So let’s see what can be won in this investigation. the film that stands out above, Angel in My Pocket , is an addition to the “Cherub, Valentine” pattern cluster… well , angel in a pocket would have to be a “small cherub/cupid”.
On investigating the films cast (see full list below)three stood out:
- Steve Robert Franken (May 27, 1932 – August 24, 2012) as Zimmerman
- Lee Meriwether (born May 27, 1935) as Mary Elizabeth Whitehead, his wife.
- Ruth McDevitt (née Shoecraft; September 13, 1895 – May 27, 1976) as Nadine
And so the cluster expands: “____27, February 27, March 27, ____ 27, May 27(x4), June 27, July 27, August 27(x3), … / 27th Day, Month Sequence” pattern cluster. I included August 27(x3) due to this day being the day my dad passed away in 2025, … AND, it’s also significant to other family members who either were born or passed away on this day. So a prompt to bridge the January 27 and April 27 gaps, … or my sense is to wait and see if the inner twin world has certain individuals in mind.
Since Cupid (grey horse) had cropped up in my previous post, I ventured to the Cupid wiki page, and limiting my search to the artwork provided, and the one that stood out (see above)— painting by Benjamin West, that includes not only Cupid/cherub, butt a “Grey Horse”… so officially a “Grey Horse” pattern cluster. It’s a little hard to see the grey horse in the painting, so I expanded on it and the cherub next to it:
… and do note his surname “West”— another addition to the recent “Cardinal Points” and “North/West” pattern clusters.
Benjamin West (October 10, 1738 – March 11, 1820)
On his wiki page, one notable persons stood out:
William Williams (1727 – 27 April 1791)
My Dad’s name is Willian!! Not only are his first and last name additions to the “Twin Theme” pattern cluster, his date of death does bridge the April 27 gap, and so the cluster expands: “____27, February 27, March 27, April 27, May 27(x4), June 27, July 27, August 27(x3), … / 27th Day, Month Sequence” pattern cluster
Other notable persons mentioned on West’s wiki page:
- John Galt ( 2 May 1779 – 11 April 1839)
- Charles Rollin (30 January 1661 – 14 December 1741 in Paris)
- William Smith (September 7, 1727 – May 14, 1803)
- Benjamin Franklin (January 17, 1706 [O.S. January 6, 1705] – April 17, 1790)
- William Allen (August 5, 1704 – September 6, 1780)
- Tiziano Vecellio (c. 1488/1490[a] – 27 August 1576)

- Anton Raphael Mengs (12 March 1728[1] – 29 June 1779)
- William Markham (1719 – 3 November 1807)
April 17th… tomorrow, is also the birthday of my son in law. December 14 is also the birthday of my sister. There are many more who can be investigated, butt I will stop with that. If you want to continue, please feel free to jump in any time in the meantime, the cluster expands:
“____27, February 27, March 27, April 27, May 27(x4), June 27, July 27, August 27(x4), … / 27th Day, Month Sequence” pattern cluster
