R.I.P John Peel.

[barakta]

I was never really a radio fan, I'm that little bit too Deaf to parse it properly, but I did see him on TV a number of times and he seemed really kind.

Now how to explain John Peel to my Deaf friends who won't know what everyone is on about...

Why is it the decent, intelligent and outstanding people die so young and what feels like before their time.?
