Interesting life on few but good sources, no copyvio obvious. The hook is interesting! --Gerda Arendt (talk) 18:34, 30 May 2017 (UTC)
Template:Ping Well, he didn't die from childhood leukemia, as the hook suggests. Do you mean:- ALT1:

- Template:Ping Well "childhood leukemia" isn't a disease, but if you think people might read it that way, then sure. 97198 (talk) 07:48, 5 June 2017 (UTC)

Template:Ping, yes, childhood leukemia is a disease. But I like Gerda's ALT2 solution. ALT2 hook refs verified and cited inline. Rest of review per Gerda Arendt. ALT2 good to go. Yoninah (talk) 13:09, 5 June 2017 (UTC)
