WASHINGTON (CNN) — White House Press Secretary Tony Snow — who once told reporters “I’m a very lucky guy” — has died at the age of 53 after a second battle with cancer. Snow, who had been undergoing chemotherapy treatments for a recurrence of the disease, left his White House job Sept. 14, 2007, and joined CNN in April as a conservative commentator. In parting comments to reporters at the White House news conference, he said, “I feel great.” He also called the job, “the most fun I’ve ever had.” |
