Perfect timing Debra,
I’m so glad to see this reference to Randy Pausch. His is such a compelling story. I first learned about him last year after his inspirational “Last Lecture” became public. Don’t miss the ABC special about Pausch on Wednesday night (April 9). We can all learn a lot about courage from this man.
