[G._Hoffman]

He's been very sick for a long time, and has basically been fighting this cancer for more than 10 years now.  For the last week or so the doctors had been saying he had hours, but he held on for a long time, and was surrounded by his friends and family.  As such things go, it was probably a good way to go.
