RIP Professor Randy Pausch

I was so saddened to hear this morning that he has passed away. I've attached the youtube clip from the last time he was on Good Morning America. I really admired his strength and my thoughts are with his wife and three small children...so heartbreaking!

That really is heartbreaking, Chastity. I don't think I know of anyone more inspiring. Bless his soul.

How sad. I've been wondering how he was doing. I hadn't heard anything. I'm teary eyed now. He was such an inspiration!

Wow, what a heartbreaking clip. I had seen him interviewed on Oprah (I think). All I could think of was how courageous he is.

Thanks for sharing that clip.

I didn't know who the guy was until DH told me about his last lecture. I watched the whole thing on youtube...what a brilliant man he was. I cried and cried when he had the cake brought out for his wife.
