A simply inspiring story of an
incredible man.
Randy Pausch set the tone at his farewell
lecture at Carnegie Mellon University.
"If I don't seem as depressed or morose as I
should be, sorry to disappoint you," said Dr.
Pausch.
It is probably the last public speech Dr.
Pausch will give anywhere. The 46-year-old
computer science professor and father of
three preschoolers has incurable pancreatic
cancer. Doctors have given him months to
live.
Yet, standing at the podium in McConomy
Auditorium, Randy Pausch did not focus on
impending death. Instead, he celebrated the
chance he had been given to live the life he
always had dreamed of. Tags :lastlecturedeathrandypauschmotivationcancerinspirationalgoalslifenikd'angelo
