    I used to be an opera fan til this guy took over and ruined it.
    Ask any opera authority, and they will say he is/was an over rated diva whose
    voice cracked too much, so he did those pop albums to make money.

    Luciano! You're going to be just fine! If Perez posts something about someone DYING then it's a LIE. Maybe you and Castro can party together this weekend and shut him up!

    This is one of the worst types of cancer and the worst type of death one can witness or incur. Pray that he is not in any pain. 32,000 per year are diagnosed with pancreatic cancer per year and most succumb within a year. He is going on 15 months which is extremely long for this dreaded disease. Pancan.org has more info. God Bless him and his family.

    He's in kidney shut down. You don't come back from that when cancer is involved. I would have liked to see a grand farewell concert, but that will never happen.

    I saw him perform in person, once and only once. Thank God I did. I would be heartbroken had I missed that chance. It was AMAZING to be in the theater when he sang. GOOSEBUMPS. Peace and Courage to the Pavarotti family.
