My sisters succumbed to cancer (one Mar.19,2000 at age 45 of pancreatic cancer; the other Aug.11,2018 at age 61 of colorectal cancer),so I feel for Mr. Carr's loved ones.Incidentally,my maternal grandfather,William Turner The Elder,who briefly pitched for the Negro League Chicago American Giants-he was born in New Canaan,Ont.,about 20 miles from Windsor in what is now Lakeshore- was married twice;his first wife,Grace Galloway Turner,died of a goiter Apr.30,1935 at age 41;his second,the woman my sisters and I called "Grandma," Bessie Mae Franklin Turner,died Apr.30,1973 at age 74 or 75 .Grandpa himself passed away due to prostate cancer at age 83 May 7,1975;May 7,of course,is a week after Apr.30.
As I recall,Mr. Carr was a handsome,golden boy sort ala California Gov. (and in the mind of many,2028 Democratic residential nominee) Gavin Newsom ("NewSCUM," as President 45/47 calls him),but Mr. Carr lacked Gov. Newsom's savvy and,I guess, ability to bond with his colleagues.
