Part of the shock of Jim Flaherty's sudden death was that he resigned his high pressure job just three weeks ago, to take it a bit easier and spend more time with family. The sad real​ity is that slowing down can sometimes lead to an early death.

"You need to maintain a purpose, maintain a regular schedule of activities, and most importantly, you need to have fun."
