Professor Randy Pausch, the well-loved Carnegie Mellon professor who gave The Last Lecture with just months to live, has died at 47.

ABC’s “Good Morning America” reported Friday morning that Carnegie Mellon professor Randy Pausch, 47, has lost his battle with pancreatic cancer.

GMA’s Diane Sawyer received a phone call from the family early Friday morning.

With months to live, Pausch gave his famous “Last Lecture” at CMU in September 2007.

He may be gone, but the impression he left on many in this world will remain. If you haven’t seen it, please take time to watch The Last Lecture. You can also buy the book version, which lead Michelle Malkin to ball her eyes out. Rest in Peace, Professor Pausch. You and your family will be in my prayers.
