Emmanuelle

The Deaths in 2017 site lists under January 27:

• Emmanuelle Riva, 89, French actress (Amour, Thérèse Desqueyroux, Hiroshima mon amour), cancer

Her name stands out... not just because it tends to be a boys name... albeit with a slight spelling variation, it stands out due to the fact that just a few days earlier, on January 23, my second grandson, "Emmanuel", was born.  It's not that common a name... what we have is a "Emmanuel/Emmanuelle" pattern-cluster.  Now note from her wiki page:

•  Emmanuelle Riva (24 February 1927 – 27 January 2017) 

What stands out now is that her birthday, together with the birthday of my first grandson, Easton, generates a "February 22, __, 24/Date Sequence" pattern- cluster.   This is a typical cluster designed as a means of prompting us to investigate the missing date.  This entails venturing to the February 23rd wiki page where we then apply the formula provided that brings us to the following notable persons and info:

• 1998 – Philip Abbott (Mar 21, 1924 – Feb 23, 1998) actor, director 
• 1999 – The Renegade (October 16, 1965 – February 23, 1999) wrestler 
• 2000 – Ofra Haza (Nov 19, 1957 – Feb 23, 2000) singer-songwriter, actress 
• 2000 – Stanley Matthews  (1 Feb 1915 – 23 Feb 2000) English footballer, manager 
• 2003 – Howie Epstein (July 21, 1955 – Feb 23, 2003) bass, songwriter, producer
• 2003 – Robert K. Merton (4 July 1910 – 23 Feb 2003) sociologist, academic 

Of the 6 in the above list, three of their birthdays stand out.  Matthews birthday falls on the 32nd day with 333 days remaining and so we have an addition to the "Identical Number Sequence" pattern-cluster as well as an addition to the "Off By One" pattern-cluster, given that his birthday is one off from the 33rd day with 333 remaining. Hamza's birthday together with my brothers birthday of January 19, generates a "November 19, __, January 19/ Date Sequence" pattern cluster.   And finally we have Merton's date of birth that's an addition to the "Notable Day" pattern-cluster... note this excerpt from this blogs Header:
