Another, same age. That's pretty young.
 
Why the hell does death come in pairs... or in threes. Tom Petty, now Paul Otellini. Damn.... 2017 is another one of those years for icons I guess. :/
 
To be honest, I thought Tom Petty was a lot older, he looked 66 15 years ago. You gotta take of yourself.

Heroin and Coke are a real !@#$@# to the heart. (Tom Petty was said to use Heroin)

Ortelli though, I'm surprised. That is young. As it was in his sleep, that is unexpected. He certainly doesn't have the key markers of being a drug user. Heredity maybe?
 
BREAKING NEWS: People die. NEXT UP, ON FOX: When People Die!

Not trying to make a joke or anything but, people do actually die, folks. As for the "death in threes" thing, I think someone just kinda noticed a long time ago when 3 people died and suddenly decided to group it together and once that happens anytime 3 people die in short periods of time they automagically get grouped together. Same principle as when you think of some food item you then start 'suddenly' seeing ads for it all over the place on TV, in print ads, billboards, etc. Think of a particular car, wham, suddenly you notice it everywhere you go, and so on.

Mindset, more than anything else.
 
Maybe being CEO is so stressful that it robs you of decades.

Hopefully he got to enjoy his riches.

Life is to short to work work work work work.

Riches mean nothing. Leaving behind people you affected in a positive way and with good memories is everything.
 
Yeah, life is incredibly short, isn't it. Hopefully one day we will have the tech to live much longer
