Columnist Art Buchwald is seen at a hospice in Washington, D.C., on May 24, 2006. Buchwald moved to a hospice nearly a year ago after doctors amputated a portion of his right leg and after refusing dialysis treatments for his failing kidneys. He was expected to die within weeks. Instead, he lived to return home and even wrote a book about his experiences. His son says he died at home on Jan. 17, 2007.
