Some of you know my Dad recently has taken ill with liver cancer. He is fighting but slowly slipping away. Today though he wanted to say hi.

Thanks

GOD BLESS YOU ALL!

I wish you and your family all the strength and hope, and we're thinking of you.
Your dad looks great in his Corvette t-shirt, God love him.

I know what you're going with, I went through it 2 1/2yrs ago with my dad.

Can still see not only your Dad's spirit and determination in his eyes,
but also the comfort in his beliefs and family. Wasn't that long ago
(2010 IIRC) that you posted that pic of your Dad on your Nonno's 106th.

Nobody knows what's next - but what's now is to be treasured.
Thanks for sharing and
please send him a big Corvette wave HI back!


Here's that pic btw - used a quick search:

Sorry about your dad Jack. Amazing how you all look alike, really amazing. Cancer is a terrible thing, 1 out of 2 of us will get it, unfortunately. Wishing you all the best.

Hey Jack. Please say hi back to your Father from Marlene and I. Lost my Brother a few years ago to Cancer and I know what you and your family must be going through. Fight the good fight my friend.
Regards, Roy and Marlene Hickingbottom.
