    with an incredibly remarkable wife. Apparently some pretty remarkable kids too!

    Your dad was a fighter and your mom a very strong warrior beside him. He did his best to turn back the EC beast. And your mom was a champion to make sure his treatments were right.

    Blessings on you all. I'm so sorry that you have experienced this loss. You are in my thoughts & prayers. There is strength in family.

    Love & Hugs to you all,

    Hi Kristy, I haven't been on
    Hi Kristy, I haven't been on here in a while. My dad was diagnosed December 2011 and passed after a short but tough battle on May 23, 2012. He was only 63. Your dad reminded much of my own. When Judy joined the site, I prayed he would pull through. I'm incredibly sorry for your loss. The pain never goes away, you will never forget, but eventually you will cope. It doesn't get easier, we just get better at managing our pain. Big hugs!

    Hi Kristy, I had the privilege of talking with your dad both before and after his surgery and he was a gracious man. He fought hard but more importantly he lived live fully. I am so sorry for your loss. I really don't know what else to say but your dad touched many of us here. We all share in your loss and pain and offer our sincerest condolences.

    Dave
