I had such high hopes that he would beat this. His attitude was outstanding. This is SUCH a lose.

To look at his you NEVER would have known he was sick.

Oh no! He was an awesome human being. It makes me sad to think his children will miss having such an awesome Dad, and knowing such a cool guy.

I really, really thought he would beat it. I'm so sad now.

Heaven has a wonderful angel. May God bless and comfort his wife, children, and family.

What a generous spirit he had to share his final months with all of us through his writings and his beautiful, eloquent last lecture. His words are such a testimony to a life well-lived. For the small parcel of comfort that it is worth: I hope his family and friends know that he touched so many lives.

His lecture actually had a really huge impact on my family life after my husband and I watched it. My quote on my profile is paraphrased from this lecture.

I didn't know - thanks for posting this. My heart goes out to his close friends and family
