I hadn't heard this awful news, Ann, and I'm really shocked and saddened by it.
I've been to three of his "Did I Mention The Free Wine" readings in the last couple of years, chatted with him and had my photo taken with him - and I have all his books. I was a big fan!
He had completely recovered from the throat cancer that had threatened to kill him, or at least he thought he had. Did it get him in the end? It's late (nearly 1am) and I'm in bed writing this on my phone so I'll find out more tomorrow.
Felix was indeed a legend. How sad.
