I didn't think he was that old.

Edit after research.. oh man only 43...

Normally I'd say "thoughts and prayers" when a "celebrity" I've never met dies while everyone else is gushing.

But, cancer is a ***** and Jeff was an amazing reporter. So instead, "**** CANCER".

 

[dennehy]

Man, awful. Nine year old lost both parents to cancer.

This is shocking, I didn’t even know he was sick. One of my favorites on Kap and J Hood. RIP

He was only diagnosed earlier this year. It got caught late and apparently way too late. Terrible stuff.
