Moan!?

 Wikipedia’s Deaths in 2024 site lists under August 27: 

Mohan, 76, Indian film director (Pakshe, Isabella, Oru Katha Oru Nunakkatha).

the first thing that came to me is the “Moan” in his name…, as per the recent and prolific “Remove a Letter Makes a Word” pattern cluster.   

• M. Mohan (15 January 1948 – 27 August 2024)

He was also born on the birthdays of my son and my now ex-partner (after 27 years), who are born 22 years apart.
