Alex Trebeck lost his battle with stage IV pancreatic cancer today at the age of 80. Jeopardy’s Twitter page wrote, “Jeopardy! is saddened to share that Alex Trebek passed away peacefully at home early this morning, surrounded by family and friends. Thank you, Alex.”
The beloved game show host was so brave as he shared his nearly two-year battle with the disease. He didn’t hold back about how the treatment and cancer were taking its toll on him physically and emotionally, but it did not stop him.
He taped his last episode on October 29th, and it will air on December 25th.
Today let’s honor a man who was as humble and nice as he was smart and ask every question as an answer.
