On May 20, Zach Sobiech, a resident of Lakeland, Minnesota, passed away at the age of 18 due to osteosarcoma. After being diagnosed with the aforementioned cancer at age fourteen, he was told in June that he had less than a year to live. His mom told him that he should start writing goodbye letters, so he took to the mic and started recording songs, a passion of his. After passing away last week, his song “Clouds” reached #1 on iTunes, with the proceeds from the song going to a research fund started in his name. Zach Sobiech will be remembered for always having a smile on his face and for making everyone feel like they meant the world to him. He has inspired people all over the country, and in the documentary below, he offers this piece of advice: “You don’t have to find out you’re dying to start living.”
