I have also (finally!) integrated a lot (but not yet all) of the surviving members of Predictor's October 2013 list into the master one. UPDATE: I have now also integrated CaptainChorizo's list of directors. Nice work. But Vera Gebuhr died in December 2014. Also, Guje Lagerwall was born in 1918, not 1920. She's not likely to get even a local obit, though. She wasn't that much of a star to begin with, and is never mentioned in the media. Her death will probably be noticed solely through her absence in the population database for living Swedes. (I checked a few minutes ago, she's very much alive as of today).
