BETTER LATE THAN NEVER!

Several actors who portrayed the 'Marlboro Man' have died of smoking-related diseases: Wayne McLaren died of lung cancer in 1992 and David McLean died of emphysema in 1995. McLaren became an outspoken anti-smoking activist in the years preceding his death. According to his mother, his last words were, “Take care of the children. Tobacco will kill you, and I am living proof of it.”

Another in the series is Eric Lawson who died in his home in San Luis Obispo, California a couple of weeks ago (to be exact, on 10th January). He portrayed the iconic rugged Marlboro Man in cigarette ads during the late 70's. He died of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD)- a disease that makes it  progressively harder to breathe over time- which is primarily caused by cigarette smoking.
I too smoked for more than 25 years- almost 50 a day but stopped about 10 years ago.
DON"T TOUCH TOBACCO MUST BE THE RULE: STILL, BETTER LATE THAN NEVER! 
Thanks.
