Helen Forrest RIIP: July 11 Pattern- Cluster... Are You Coming To the Tree!!

This post wasn't inspired by a recent notable death.  Instead it has to do with an acquaintance, Terry, who my partner and I met two days ago (September 19) during a visit to PEI (Prince Edward Island), who out of the blue happened to share that he and his brother were both born on July 11th, butt one year apart (hence generating a "July 11" pattern-cluster).

So going to the July 11 wiki page, I decided to follow the same investigative format: investigating only the Notable Events, Births and Deaths occurring during a year consisting of three identical numbers at the end.  The following stood out:

• 1999 – Helen Forrest, American singer and actress (b. 1917)

Her surname stands out given the recent "Are You Coming to the Tree" series of posts.  And as well, her surname is an addition to the recent "Forest/Tree Theme..." pattern-cluster, note for instance my recent September 15 post:

•  Mary Jane Kelly and DeForest Kelly: Are You Coming to the Tree?!

Now note this excerpt from Helen Forrest's wiki page:

She served as the "girl singer" for three of the most popular big bands of the Swing Era (Artie Shaw, Benny Goodman, and Harry James) 

What immediately stood out was the name "Benny Goodman " because just a few hours ago as my partner and I were driving back from PEI, I listened to two different radio programs that both mentioned Benny Goodman.  Note the cryptic phrase in his name re "time good man" (Benny as in "Big Ben" clock tower).  Note from Benny Goodman's wiki page:

• Benjamin David "Benny" Goodman^[1] (May 30, 1909 – June 13, 1986) 

His date of death is an addition to the "Targeting Family Birthdays" pattern-cluster,  given that June 13 is also my birthday.   As for the other two notable persons, note from their wiki pages:

• Artie Shaw (born Arthur Jacob Arshawsky; May 23, 1910 – December 30, 2004) 
• Harry Haag James (March 15, 1916 – July 5, 1983)   

Shaw's birthday is an addition to the "Identical Number Sequence" pattern-cluster, given that as of May 23 there are 222 days remaining in the year.   Keep in mind as well, that sequences of 2's are a particular inner twin trade mark signature.  Harry Haag James date of death is an addition to the "Off By One" pattern-cluster given that it's one off from July 4th, a prominent date as of late, because it's Independence Day in the US, AND because 3 of the first 5 US Presidents had died on July 4th!!

So going now to Benny Goodman's wiki page, note the following:

•  There, Goodman and his artists Gene Krupa, Bunny Berigan, and Helen Ward found a large crowd of young dancers, raving and cheering the hot music they had heard on the Let's Dance radio show.^[21] Herb Caen wrote that "from the first note, the place was in an uproar."^[22]

Note the following information from the wiki pages from 3 of the 4 persons mentioned above:

• Eugene Bertram "Gene" Krupa (January 15, 1909 – October 16, 1973)
• Helen Ward ( September 19, 1913 – April 21, 1998) 
• Herbert Eugene "Herb" Caen (April 3, 1916 – February 2, 1997) 

Many of the dates are significant: Krupa's birthday is an addition to the "Targeting Family Birthdays" pattern-cluster given that both my son and life partner are born on January 15, exactly 22 years apart. Ward was born on September 19... the day that Terry mentioned about he and his brother (hence generating a "September 19" pattern-cluster).  Ward also passed away on April 21, which because it was a leap year at the time, he passed away on the 112th day of the year (hence an addition to the "Off By One" pattern-cluster, as in one off from the 111th day of the year).   Caen's date of death occurred on the 33rd day with 332 days remaining, again an additon to the "Off BY One" pattern-cluster, as in one off from the day of the year where 333 days remain.

I won't go into detail as to what these communicate, except to say that by reading this blog, you'll soon learn what it's all about.  Or, if you don't mind asking, I don't mind divulging. There was one other name on Benny Goodman's wiki page that has that inner twin feel:

• Åke "Stan" Hasselgård (October 4, 1922 - November 23, 1948)

Note the cryptic phrase in his name re "hassle gaurd", and then there's Stan that means "stone" in origin.    As well, his date of death is an addition to the "Targeting Family Birthdays" pattern-cluster as November 23rd is my mothers birthday.
