Victor Ellis, you will be missed


I like pleasure spiked with pain and music is my aeroplane,
It's my aeroplane,
Songbird sweet and sour Jane and music is my aeroplane,
It's my aeroplane
pleasure spiked with pain,
that mother*****'s always spiked with pain.

Just when you get some happy news, some sad is sure to follow. Former Alabama great Victor Ellis is dead at 28 from a rare form of cancer.

Story is here. Ahmad Galloway, his former teammate, put together a foundation to help raise money for Victor's treatment.

Statement from the website:
Victor Ellis's life on this earth ended Tuesday night March 25,2008 around 10:30 P.M. The many messages and prayers sent to Victor through this website meant more to him than words can express. He received all of these messages over the computer and also had a book made with all of your words of encouragement. He fought his battle with cancer the same way he lived his life, with courage and character. Today he has won the battle; he is pain free, cancer free, and sitting in Heaven with that beautiful smile on his face. We Love You and we will Miss You Victor!


Remember, tomorrow is promised to no man. Seize the day. Don't put off what can be done today.
