59, bit of a stunner. Do you know if it was a heart attack.? He'd had no previous probs with health that I'd heard of. Fine man, but 59, hells teeth and gods nose. sad
I'm not sure if it was a heart attack or not? It certainly looks like it from accounts.

I didn't think he was that attractive myself.

Didn't think his leaving his wife at the airport like that was commendable behaviour.

Thought resigning his position in 2003 over Iraq was very commendable.

neutral He stood on what he believed in (right or wrong depending on what you believe). That is a rare thing in todays political field no matter what side of the pond we are on. He will be missed.
He wasn't bad for a ginger beardy light-bulb shaped head gnome.
