>> Phil,

>> The uncle of mine who maybe a year ago I had asked for prayer regarding

>> throat cancer hasn't been doing well lately and yesterday took a turn for
>> the worst and they don't expect him to make it but a day or so. I was
>> thinking of him a lot yesterday after my parents said he was brought to

>> petty
>> selfishness, to take him home? I gave you your chance." That is true and
>> I

>> enough to get the point across for future use. I do pray he takes him

>> and stop the suffering. In fact I told Brenda last night after we got the
>> second call that he wasn't doing too well, I felt he wouldn't make the
>> night... I don't know if he did or not, I haven't heard. This guy was the
>> "cool" adult when I was growing up... slapping you five, jiving you with
>> the latest 60's talk... "hang loosse man"... "out'a sight", "slap some
> skin
>> man"... and etc. and more importantly was probably the single person
>> who
>> inspired me to play guitar which I've enjoyed that gift my whole life
>> almost. He didn't give it to me no, but barring any divine intervention
>> from God to do so, this guy was my inspiration as I watched him play
>> those
>> old Elvis tunes and etc. and sing. He sounded very much like Elvis in
> fact.
>> Anyway it appears I'll not get to tell him the influence he had upon me
>> as
>> a kid and beyond and how much I appreciated him for that alone, but that
> is
>> my own doing... one always thinks there will be time in life for stuff
> like
>> that, and we go on with our little lives earning bucks and paying bills
> and
>> getting along. Anyway I guess the request to pass along is that the Lord
>> take him now and end the suffering barring any miraculous intervention.
>>
>> Thanks.
