Dr. Kevorkian dead at age 83

http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/us_obit_kevorkian

"DETROIT – Jack Kevorkian, the retired pathologist who captured the world's attention as he helped dozens of ailing people commit suicide, igniting intense debate and ending up in prison for murder, has died in a Detroit area hospital after a short illness. He was 83.
Kevorkian, who said he helped some 130 people end their lives from 1990 to 1999, died about 2:30 a.m. at William Beaumont Hospital in Royal Oak, close friend and prominent attorney Mayer Morganroth said. He had been hospitalized since last month with pneumonia and kidney problems."

ETA: I don't know. If I ever become afflicted with a horrible disease like Lou Gherig's or am a vegetable of some sort, I would wish that someone like him would be available to help me. But that's just me.
