Thanks for posting that. I didn't know he had died yet. Even though he was just my doctor, I miss him and am so sad for his family. It's hard to believe someone that young won't be around to deliver my next kid.

Erika told me yesterday that he died and I just had watched that video this morning and couldn't stop crying. I'm so sad he's gone.
