Dear Friends, it's been awhile since...

Dear Friends, it's been awhile since I've posted because...well, I just didn't know what to say. Dad is in home hospice, resting comfortably. I'll be back visiting again in a few weeks. If you have a memory of Dad you would like to share for his Celebration of Life book, please send to khayes@gmail.com. Financial donations are still greatly appreciated. - Kathleen

Dear Friends, I wanted to...

Dear Friends, I wanted to share an idea with you: a celebration of life book for Dad. I'm pulling together your supportive posts from this site and Dad's Facebook page plus your lovely emails and cards. If you have a special thought that you would like to include - a few words, a memory, a poem, a song, a photo - please send to khayes@gmail.com. Thanks again for your love and support. It means the world. xoxo - Kathleen

We need to raise another $5,000 this month to cover the balance of Dad's vaccine. Feel free to share this link on your Facebook page and let's see if it will help spread the word for this month's fundraising sprint. Thanks!

Don Barrows is battling brain cancer, and you can help. As a retired teacher and active community member, our dad has touched and inspired so many. Because so many of you have asked what you can do, the family has created this relief fund to help offset the costs of his cutting-edge cancer treatments, which are not covered by his health insurance. Our goal is to raise $75,000 for his intensive 6-week therapy and monthly follow-on treatments. We thank you for your support, payers, and healing intentions.

Kathleen, I saw you at our Federal Way concert on Sunday night and came up to you at the end to wish you well. I was hoping to see you at the reception as I wanted to introduce you to a very special man in my life. We want to give a gift to your Dad (with a card by mail). We need to know who to make the check out to and we need a physical address. Please email this information as we want to get it to you as soon as possible. Your Dad knows me but he doesn't know my special friend, Bob Rodman, who is now singing tenor in the FW Chorale. I have been in the FW Chorale for 19 1/2 years. Your Dad is a wonderful man and we send our love and prayers to him and to you all. God bless, Roberta Macdonald

Dear Friends, many of you know we lost our brother Johnny B to brain cancer in 2011. It's stupefying that Dad is now fighting the same battle. Thank you, thank, thank you for your support. We're off to a great start!
