"Rob Ford, the Toronto city councillor who became the world’s most famous mayor during a wild, scandal-filled term, is dead at age 46.

The married father of two young children died after 18 months of treatment for a rare and aggressive cancer first diagnosed in the midst of his 2014 bid to be re-elected mayor. Ford would have turned 47 on May 28.

A brief statement from the Ford family announcing the death Tuesday described the former mayor as a 'dedicated man of the people' who 'spent his life serving the citizens of Toronto'...."

As a resident of Toronto=63 years-sorry to read of his death from cancer this morning. A surprise.

That's a hard way to go, and so young. :(
 
I liked Rob Ford, he had character and sense of humor. So sad to see him gone, so sorry for his family :(
