In Memory of Dr. Randy Pausch

For those of you who have never heard about The Last Lecture given by Dr. Randy Pausch of Carnegie-Mellon University, you've missed out on a real treat.

Here is the lecture on YouTube:





Some of you who watch Oprah, he was also on and gave an abbreviated version of the lecture on her show on 10/22/2007. He was later asked to publish it in book form, and is now out in bookstores.

Randy passed away earlier today, but he has left a legacy that his children will grow up with and appreciate for their lifetimes.

My condolences go to his wife Jai and their 3 children, this man was (and will always be) a treasure to everyone touched by his message.
