Default A sad day at the 1967 4K house

This morning at 7:00 i lost my wife of 29 years to leukemia cancer. Deb was a trooper, she fought the stuff for 26 months. We had just returned last Friday from a 4 month stay at MD Anderson Cancer Center in Houston, Tx.. It was her wishes to get back home to be with the kids n grandchildren.
I feel blessed to be associated with a great group of car guys like myself on this site. I wish God’s speed to all of you.

In Christ Love,

Richard,

I’m so sorry to hear about your wife passing.

I lost my wife of 25 years suddenly in 2009 so I know the pain.

Our Daughter and my hobbies helped me to get my life back.

Take care, Chris

Dear Richard, so sorry for your loss. I have known you for so many years through this site and value your friendship. If there is anything I can do or help in anyway let me know you have a lot of friends on this site who have gone through similar losses. I know she had a wonderful life with you and your whole family.

My sincere condolences...

Prayers for your wife, you, and your family.
May Jesus embrace your wife, you and your family in this extraordinarily difficult time.
