    I'm so sorry to read this-

    I'm so sorry to read this--thank you for telling us. Hondo was a huge help and such a part of the many ways the CSN family has helped people through difficult times. He'll be missed.

    You will be missed, your faith was contagious, thank you for that faith and your kindeness to all of us who looked to you often for feedback and advice.

    Prayers for you as well, Honod's family.

    I have only been on the cancer website for a month or so, but Hondo's comments were some of the very first ones I read.  Although I didn't know him, when I read about his passing, I sat here and cried.  I "felt" like I knew him from his many words of advice and encouragement.  He gave me hope for my husband, and when I read his story, I thought, "If HONDO could get through everything he was faced with, I know my husband will be able to pull through."

    My he spend his days preaching with the angels.  Heaven gained a special one!

    Peace and Positive Thoughts

    I don't come on the boards much any more and I'm so saddened to hear of Hondo's passing. He was such a great support to me during my battle. A true warrior in every sense of the word. He will be truly missed. My thoughts and prayers for peace for you and your family.

    So terribly sorry

    I can't express how very sorry I am. When he wasnt posting for while I would wonder what is going on. He has inspired so many people here and he was such a fighter. He was always so positive and gave me so many advises. We will all miss him very much. May he rest in piece.

    Hondo was and is always special.

    Very sad to read this. Hondo was always there for all of us and had gone through hell and back several times. He is now at peace and no more pain. We will see you again Hondo. R.I.P.

    Hondo

    Thank you very much.  I knew his being absent was going to be sad.

    Hondo was one of the first members I connected with and we shared many threads together.

    You were very lucky to have him in your life.

    My deepest condolences.

    Shocked

    Like most everyone here, Hondo helped me through my treatment and offered support.  He was a pillar of strength here on the forum and will be sorely missed.

    This one hit me hard.  We all knew deep down how sick he was but he always came back and did his best to help others.  My sincere condolances for your loss.

    Sad return to CSN

    I have not been on CSN for many months, and my first visit back came with this sad news.  Like so many others, Hondo was there for me during many of my worst times dealing with side effects from chemo and rads.  Like him, I had many complications from rads, with several surguries--so he knew what I was going through.  Sorry that he's no longer with us.

    So sorry for your and our loss

    Thank you for letting us know about your father's passing.  He was such an inspirational and courageous presence on this discussion board while I went through my treatment which ended in October.

    Yes, thanks Hondo

    Your father was an inspiration to so many on this board.  Although my husband lost his battle in January 2013, I do check back occasionally and reading this news made me especially sad.  Sending peace to your family - as I know your father is at peace.  Take care.
