Wolf Gang Trips

 Wikipedia’s

Mariano Haro (27 May 1940 – 27 July 2024) 84, Spanish Olympic athlete

His surname is an addition to the “Change A Letter in Name Makes a Word” patter cluster, and so Haro becomes “harm; hard; hart; harp; halo.  Note as well the “mar” in his first name. That he was born and died on the 27th day is also strategic— designed to communicate.  August 27th is a significant day to many of  my family members.  

Note this next notable person who passed away on the same day: 

Wolfgang Rihm (13 March 1952 – 27 July 2024) 72, German composer (Jakob Lenz, Die Hamletmaschine, Die Eroberung von Mexico, Dionysos)

His surname makes “rim” — an addition to the “Remove a Letter Makes a Word” pattern cluster.  This is a cryptic reference to the “outer rim” of the tectonic plates, and in particular to the North American and Eurasian plates … or any that had been adversely affected by the previous glacial period.   Do note the words in his first name re “wolf gang”— “Phrase in Name” pattern cluster,  that also factor in.  This is the second Wolfgang in the last 8 days: 

Wolfgang Smith (18 February 1930 – 19 July 2024)

I went to the Wolfgang wikipedia page and was surprised to find the following etymology: 

 and gang, meaning "path", "journey", "travel".

So when I perused the list of notable Wolfgang’s, this one then stood out:  

• Wolfgang von Trips (1928–1961), German racing driver

His surname jives, generating a “Travel Theme” pattern cluster. Note as well his surname is an addition to the “Remove a Letter from Name Makes a Word” pattern cluster, and so making “trip, rips, and tips”… and vial the other clusters re “grips, drips”… and “strips”. 

Wolfgang von Trips  (4 May 1928 – 10 September 1961),

Note the “for May”.  

Note this next notable person who passed away 5 days before: 

• Sandra B. Rosenthal (September 27, 1936 – July 22, 2024) 87, American philosopher

We now have a “May 27, __, July 27, __, September 27/ 27th Day, Every other Month” pattern cluster. 

Note as well this person who died a week before:   

• Sandy Posey (June 18, 1944 – July 20, 2024)  80, singer ("Single Girl", "Born a Woman", "I Take It Back"), dementia

Another addition to the “Sand Theme” pattern cluster.   

Oldřich Janota (27 August 1949 – 27 July 2024)

Note the “old rich” in his first name, an addition to the “Phrase in Name” pattern cluster.  And the cluster expands: 

 “May 27, __, July 27, August 27, September 27/ 27th Day, Date Sequence” pattern cluster

Note the etymology dictionary: 

gang (n.)
