Game show whiz James Holzhauer remembers exactly where he was when he found out Alex Trebek was battling stage 4 pancreatic cancer. He was in the green room, waiting to go on and actually play
Jeopardy. He was in the midst of a tremendous winning streak when a producer released the devastating statement about the longtime hostâs health. It was a lot to take in, but Holzhauer eventually got himself together and watched as Trebek himself performed as perfectly as ever.
James Holzhauer hit up social media this past week and told the story, both because it was the two year anniversary of the announcement and because it was the perfect jumping off point to announce heâs raising money to help fight pancreatic cancer in honor of the dearly departed game show legend. You can check out his version of events below. Itâs really obvious how much he cared for Alex Trebekâ¦

In an Instagram post, Alex Trebek’s daughter Nicky reflected on the pancreatic cancer announcement he made to Jeopardy! fans in 2019. It was 2 years ago today while we were working on the @jeopardy set that my dad bravely stepped out in front of the camera to announce he had been diagnosed with #pancreaticcancer, Nicky wrote on Saturday, March 7. He brought much-needed #awareness to this terrible disease and provided #hope to so many struggling, she continued. I m beyond proud of him for his courage and integrity throughout his illness.

ST. LOUIS PARK, Minnesota Coffee can bring people together. Kathie Kemi of Cloquet, Minnesota has built her relationships and community over cups of coffee.
That inspired her daughter, Kym Jolstad, to create a coffee in honor of her mom.
It started in August 2019 when Kemi was diagnosed with pancreatic cancer. Jolstad wanted to do something to support her mom. Can I do the walk to help support it? I had done a lot of that with my dad. He had MS and so when I went to look at the walk, I was like actually I don t want to do just one event. I want to raise awareness and really have this ongoing, Jolstad recalled.
