‘Angela’s Ashes’ author McCourt dies at 78

Frank McCourt, died of Cancer on Sunday, 19 July 2009. He is the author of Angela's Ashes, 'Tis and Teacher Man. Angela's Ashes won him a Pulitzer and was made into an epic movie of the same name. I personally liked reading his books as it was funny and yet heartwarming. I always shed a tear or two when I read about how his siblings died at a very young age because of diseases. May his soul be blessed.
