So long, JeffR. Keep those DUZYs coming from wherever it is your spirit may soar.

Jeff and Nance chose to let his passing be known as they saw fit, and I respect their decision not to make his illness a public event. Each victim of a fatal disease certainly has a right to confront it in their own way. Whether or not to go public with it is their decision and theirs alone.

For the record, I didn't know Jeff was ill either, just saw Nance's post on Facebook. For that matter, I don't even know if she is cool with my having posted on the board (guess I should have asked before posting--Nance, please forgive me if I acted in haste)*, but I know Jeff had enough friends on DU that plenty of people here would want to know and say something. For those in contact with Nance, I'm sure she will be glad to read all communication of condolence and encouragement. We all know how tough and gutsy she is, but this can't be an easy time for her. None of us are made of titanium.

*late edit: I later got a note from her saying she was going to ask me to post something, but she heard that I already had.
