As a Canadian, I have watched and been a fan of Alex Trebek's work since the 1960s. As a fan of Jeopardy, I was always impressed by his professionalism and generosity. Even last week, his recently taped shows from his 37th season of Jeopardy revealed his kindness and strong work ethic. He will be missed.
