Read the New York Times June 3, 2011, obituary on Jack Kevorkian. The obituary says says his critics and supporters generally agree that “as a result of his stubborn and often intemperate advocacy for the right of the terminally ill to choose how they die, hospice care has boomed in the United States, and physicians have become more sympathetic to their pain and more willing to prescribe medication to relieve it.”
