Sitting on the coffee table at my dad and his wife's home was a little book titled The Last Lacture authored by Randy Pausch. I had never heard of it and it's not something I'd be likely to come across in a book store but somehow it drew me in. Jan let me borrow it (thanks Jan) and I've just finished off the last pages. I recommend it heartily. You can even go to The Last Lecture website and poke around. Or you can view Randy Pausch actually giving his final lecture by following this link.

I saw his lecture on TV and it was very moving! I don't know if he was a Christian when he died, can you tell from the book?
Terri, He made a statement that his family keeps faith close to the chest at then end of his book. He also stated that he didn't want to write a spiritual book but one that presented fundamentals for acheiving life goals that people of all faiths could appreciate. So the book was definitely not spiritual and I would not be able to say if he was a Christian or not.
