That was a great move on everyone's part to put this together for 13 year old Odie Harris, who is fighting cancer and knows that he may not make it.

Found this report here:

There was not a dry eye in that gym, not even the men. Ihave to tell you, Odie looked grown-up today. He has no color but, I really think he knows that it's not good for him and he's OK with it. It's like he's at peace with it. He really looked happy. So, if you all would continue to pray for him and keep him in your thoughts. Thank You So Much. God Bless You All.

Prayers for this young Marine bravely fighting his own hard and difficult battle with cancer. At least now he is fighting it as a Marine.

I meant to thank you for pinging me on this. Sorry!

Pinging those of you who commented on Odie’s story.

One year to the day after his diagnosis, our honorary young Marine, Odie Harris, at the age of 13, joined his Marine Corps brothers and sisters who have gone before him.

I do not believe it would be fair to say that Odie lost his battle against cancer. Through his bravery and God’s mercy, he has been freed from the bondage of his broken little body and is in pain no more. He will be greatly missed by many.
