Randy Pausch has died. His "Last Lecture" is truly inspirational and I hope that if I ever faced that situation I would be able to accept it with as much grace and dignity that he did!

Indeed.

A remarkable man, and a spellbinding lecture.

Agreed,
I've been following his journey since the WSJ article....and ironically, my father was diagnoised in January with this dreaded cancer.... Randy was a very unique and special person who touched many lives. I'm sad for his wife and children.... 47....way too young..
