(RIP) Nzoner
Joe called me yesterday and asked to me post about what is going on.
If you haven't heard, he has been diagnosed with Pancreatic cancer. Talk about a rock. Guy survives his heart attack, then loses his wife, and now this? It's incredible to me how strong he is...I mean, can you imagine? They have given him a pain blocker that he says is working well, though he has trouble eating. He had a port installed for chemo. He is in incredibly good spirits, even though he admitted to me he's tired, he wants to finish the race shining the Light of the Lord to others. He's at peace and I'm proud of how he has handled ALL of this with so much grace. Please pray for mercy if you would be so kind. He didn't ask me to start this thread so people could feel sorry for him, he asked me because he wanted you all to know that the headstone finally was set in place, he just wasn't up to doing it ( in hospital today), and I don't blame him. I'd like to thank everyone who donated to this cause. Joe is a special guy a and all those bashes made more than good times, they made lifelong friends. I'll forever be grateful to have known him & Kathy. Be good to those you love. ----- MOD EDIT: Here's a little more detail on Joe's new work: Quote:

I just read Joe's post from a couple weeks ago. I'd be happy to try and help organize a small get together in st joe as he suggested if we find a time that works for him and we have some interest. Can rent a space at the city golf course that would have cash bar option and could cater in food and play some classic rock tunes for him fairly easily and wouldn't break the bank...

It was a genuine compliment. He opened up his home to a bunch of people that he didn't know well. It takes a good soul to see the good in people like that.

I'd give my left nut for a get together. If Nzoner wants it I'll at least try. I don't think I've ever had any interaction with him but even words on a screen still count. My Pa had that shit and is still kicking....you got this |

Been texting Joe this morning. We also post together at a fantasy football message board and have some mutual friends/ acquaintances there. He asked me to share this both places.

Never met...never even responded to each other. The journey is a wild ride...the ending is perfect. I'm not overly religious....but believe what you can and love as much as possible. Everybody says "you got this". I got up Sunday and made it to church...not sure why. My dad drove up and we had had the normal conversation. Hes got yours and it sucks. Walked to the front of the church and got on my knees....I don't normally do that. I prayed....and I was asked for you to be happy. Take it is for what it's worth. My faith and my religion have always been "HayWire" I've read and reread your posts over and over. You are a man among boys. I can't speak and for you....but goddammit you are a good human. |

Joe,
All I know is that if there is a man that can beat this, it's you. Well, you and maybe Bwana. Prayers sent for healing and strength. I'm so sorry you are going through this. You've ALWAYS been a good human and that's why we love you. Sent from my SM-A526U using Tapatalk |
