Vermonter has been fighting cancer for many months. Sadly, His family just let us know that his fight is nearly over.
From his daughter, Denise:
"My dads battle with cancer is coming to a close. He is peaceful now at home under my care and my moms with hospice support. I want to thank you and everyone that has sent him prayers over the course.
Pancreatic cancer is an ugly cancer and hopefully someday they will find a way to slow it or stop it completely. My dad was and is a fighter. Right now we just want him to have peace."
Prayers on the way for our dear friend Vermonter and his family.
What a beautiful and intelligent man is Vermonter.
You are loved, all is well.
My prayers are with you.
I am sorry I have only just seen this.
May the Lord God shed his grace on these in this trying time.
May the Lord bring comfort and ease the pains and bring His healing.
Amen.
I am praying for you.
May God grant you and your family peace and solace through this difficult time.
Prayers up for this wonderful husband, father and fellow-FReeper! May he find comfort in your presence now and forever!
Lost my father to this cancer, too, he was only 43. I pray he has a peaceful and happy death! May God bless Vermonter and his family.
God Bless them all and their families. My prayers continue for all of them.
My prayers for peace for Vermonter and the family. May the peace of God surpass all understanding and provide comfort in this difficult time..
Prayers shall be said for Vermonter and his entire family.
My mother died of pancreatic cancer 22 years ago, plus a very good friend of mine 4 years ago; I know what it is. My prayers go with you and your family.
