Bobby Smith R!!P 6th Notable Smith Die's in March 2013

Note the following taken from Wikipedia's Death in 2013 site under March 16: 
Bobby Smith, 76, American singer (The Spinners), complications of influenza and pneumonia.[28]
A record breaking 6 Smith's have passed away so far this Month, five of whom passed away between March 1-5.

For a number of weeks now, I've emailed to Associate Chief Justice Deborah K. Smith a number of recent posts note.  Note this email message that accompanied the last group of posts sent on March 13, 2010:
My last email mentions 4 notable Smiths passing away within 5 days, The Deaths in 2013 site have added one more, making it 5 notable "Smiths" passing away in 5 days!!  Even at 4 it beat the odds when considering other recent months on the site don't come anywhere near this... not to mention the pattern-cluster of notable Judges passing away just prior to this.   Other clusters have cropped up... for instance 15 notable singers passing away within 11 days and as listed on the Deaths in 2013 site is a record!!  What's more, is the obvious "meaning" that can be garnered by the pattern-clusters. 
Please find attached my most recent posts to my Pronoiasecret Blog.  As I've stated, this is a guide, the actual posts give access to the links

As you can see, Bobby Smith was also a "Singer", hence his death is an addition to both the "Smith" and "Singer" pattern-cluster categories!!
As per the 2011 and 2012 monthly stats of Notable persons who have passed away with the surname "Smith" listed below, note the following: 
Wikipedia's "Deaths in 2011" site includes in their List:
  • 22 Smiths (plus 1 Ferrero which means Smith) 
Wikpedia's "Deaths in 2012" site Lists: 
  • 19 Smiths 
This is an average of less than 2 per month, so the 6 passing away in March 2013 is not usual.  It's interesting to  note that March is named after the God of War Mars!! Note the following excerpt from March's wiki page (Here):
The name of March comes from Latin Martius, the first month of the earliest Roman calendar. It was named for Mars, the Roman god of war who was also regarded as a guardian of agriculture and an ancestor of the Roman people through his sons Romulus and Remus.
