I don't know how many of you are familiar with Andy Pausch.  He was a professor at Carnegie Mellon University who was suffering from Pancreatic Cancer that had been determined to be terminal.

His "last lecture" to his students was recorded and became an internet phenomena.  If you haven't seen it, please take the time.  You won't regret it at all. 

The way that he approached his illness and his life serves as a lesson to us all.

That really was inspirational.  It's hard to imagine his being in such good shape and now gone.  Thanks for posting it.

That a shame Bob.I read an article in RD a couple of months about him and have listened to his lecture. He was and is an incredible inspiration. My heart goes out to his family.

When I saw his last comments and of june and no more after that, I was worried to look again. I could feel this time it's for real. And yes he died, but his powerful messages will live for ever. I wish his family all the best and to live his way, because it's encouraging, it's phenomenal!
