Oct. 15--Paul Allen is dead at 65, just two weeks after announcing he had restarted treatment for non-Hodgkin lymphoma. The news of the Microsoft(MSFT) co-founder and Seahawks owner's death quickly reverberated across social media -- far beyond the reaches of Seattle.

Allen's work and philanthropy reached far and wide, touching many people between his business with Microsoft(MSFT), Vulcan, the Allen Institute for Brain Science and his ownership of the Seahawks and Trail Blazers and his love of rock music. Reactions to the billionaire's passing flooded social media.

"Paul was a person who pushed so many intellectual envelopes and expanded human knowledge, and his legacy will live beyond bricks and mortar," Washington state Governor Jay Inslee tweeted Monday.

"I'll miss him greatly. His gracious leadership and tremendous inspiration will never be forgotten" added Seahawks coach Pete Carroll on Twitter.

Here's what people are saying about Allen's passing.
