Kevin "Racks" Gene Roster Jr. (March 9, 1983 – July 26, 2019) was an American with terminal sarcoma who moved to California to avail himself of the state's right-to-die legislation.[1] He was an advocate for the legalization of medical aid in dying. [2] He played in the 2019 World Series of Poker in the summer of 2019, and used the event as a platform to raise awareness about sarcoma and to encourage people to push for early detection and diagnosis.[3]
