R.I.P.
He died of the same terrible cancer my dad is battling
Me too, Skippy...I grew up on PBS, we didn't have cable in our rural area and my dad would never spring for a satellite dish because we got about 10 "regular" channels and as long as he could see his ball games and watch the news he felt we weren't missing out, lol! We watched Jeopardy!, Lawrence Welk, all the PBS specials and shows, etc. I loved watching anything to do with music, so I also enjoyed the three tenors. Pavorotti will be missed. I almost posted this very topic last night as soon as the news came out.Date: 9/6/2007 10:44:30 AM

That is sad. I use to watch the three tenors on PBS: Luciano Pavarotti, Placido Domingo, and Jose Carreras. I always enjoyed listening to them; what a beautiful voice!

Thanks Skippy, Monarch & Snlee.
I told my dad a few weeks ago that Pavarotti had the same kind of cancer. I was really hoping that Pavarotti would beat the odds.
