Iron-ic Death

It’s always ironic that a healthy individual, involved in the health food field, dies prematurely.

One-time local running sensation Brian Maxwell, co-founder of the multimillion-dollar PowerBar empire, has died of a heart attack at just 51 years old.

Sad on a number of fronts.  Died young.  Died at a point where he may just have been starting to enjoy his fabulous wealth (yea!  another Canadian success story - $375 million USD!) Died of the #1 disease in North America - heart.  You would be forgiven if you thought, by all the hype, that AIDS was the #1 killer - sorry, they’ve just got the biggest lobby dominating the media.

Reminds us to enjoy every minute that we’re here - as we are all living on borrowed time.
