RIP big guy.

Did you ever see any videos of Bernie Williams, ex NY Yankee baseball player who is quite the accomplished jazz guitarist? Just an FYI.

I had heard on the news it was bone cancer. That is supposedly one of the most painful cancers, and require the most pain medication near the end. It of course can affect anyone, but usually is found in young adult males for some reason. One of my friends died of it at age 21.
