We lost a national icon Sunday. I don’t know exactly what all your ages are, but I can bet at some point, you turned on the TV at 7:30 PM and caught an episode of Jeopardy. Whether it was a moment of genius-like fire where a contestant would sweep the board on their own or that anxiety-inducing “True Daily Double” Alex Trebek was there for all of it.
It goes beyond the fact that he was a Canadian being a native of Sudbury, Ontario. Alex Trebek was a part of our lives in some way or another. Unfortunately, as terribly sad as his passing is it wasn’t a shock.
