Alex Trebeck, at 80, best known as the long time (36 years) host of “Jeopardy,” is doing remarkably well as he continues chemotherapy for the cancer diagnosed in 2019.

What makes him an “Amazing,” apart from his ability to entertain us so well all those years? Alex didn’t stop taping the show despite the fatigue of chemotherapy until obliged to by the pandemic. He then went on to write a book this year about his life and what it’s been like to deal with his cancer: “The Answer is…; Reflections on My Life.”

And what does Alex wish for his future post-COVID? To tape the show once again, live. What a courageous example for us all.
