"Robert Goulet, the handsome, big-voiced baritone whose Broadway debut in “Camelot” launched an award-winning stage and recording career, has died. He was 73.

The singer died Tuesday morning in a Los Angeles hospital while awaiting a lung transplant, said Goulet spokesman Norm Johnson.

He had been awaiting a lung transplant at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center in Los Angeles after being found last month to have a rare form of pulmonary fibrosis."

Our next-door neighbor died from this. A non-smoker, he was only in his 50s when he died after a brief struggle with this. There's no cure, only a transplant, and like Bob Goulet, died while on the waiting list.
