This is a great story about an interesting and vital person who has his life end early due to cancer. It is especially good for us boomers of a certain age.

This book is a living tribute by Randy. It is well written, easy to read and contains wonderful thoughts and feelings for anyone close to death. We should be very glad he was able to share this with all of us. Lucky are those who have the time to plan as he did. There is never enough time. My favorite part is about the stuffed animals. Never grow too old or sick to have fun. How would you deal with life knowing you have pancreatic cancer and it is eating away your body little by little. There is no cure at this time. Great inspiration for all who are dealing with a terminal disease. Also any family members who know someone who with a terminal disease. Highly recommend this book to everyone. It will make you think.

A brighter outlook on life
by: lilmislkn (251)	Review created: 08/26/08
This book is inspirational. Here's a dying man who has a better outlook on life and living than most of us healthy people. If he is so positive, why can't we be? His book is a must read.

Left God out of equation
by: mudge200 (166)	Review created: 08/23/08
This was an interesting book but it lacked a spiritual punch. It lacked depth of purpose.......it left you wanting more.

Great book, but small physical size of book
by: tonykj1 (53)	Review created: 08/23/08
Looks like it is going to be a great book, but I was surprised by it's small physical size. It is 5.5 " X 7.25" rather than a standard size book

Carpe Diem! Seize The Day!
by: mamijosa (237)	Review created: 08/19/08
I was very touched by the book, maybe because of the fact that the author passed away on July 25th. The book to me clearly is a declaration of love to mankind, and to his family in particular. A few of his ideas I may try and build into my daily routine. His family is very lucky to have had him. The passage where he says that he was the first man ever to fall in love with his daughter made me cry. His positive attitude certainly is contageous, and worth being passed on to others. 'Never take anything for granted, an definitely seize the moment.' The paragraph where the one friend of his describes passing a convertible that's driven by a guy who drums his fingers on the driver's door, and has this big grin on his face really made me smile. Special to me also were the paragraphs where Randy's message is to begin things from zero, scratch false pride, and try new things, to put a lot of effort into doing things even though they may not always carry the promise of reaching one's goal/s. Interesting to me were the parts about making people aware of what it truly means to be a team member, and what it requires to become one. All in all, a noteworthy book that I will recommend to anyone who, in geeral, has an interest in intelligent literature.

I like the way the seller described the book, and I had heard about it. I saved money by buying on e-bay and I got a great book.I would definitely deal with this seller again. I have not read it all, but what I have read makes me think I will grow from this.
