I would like a list of living celebrities who have some affiliation to
Heart disease.  perhaps they themselves have had heart problems (i.e
Larry King or Regis Philbin) or have a relative or close friend who
has suffered.

I have compiled a list of living celebrities who have a connection
with heart disease, with links to online reference sources.
