    Barbra,

    I have been away, I just got back and saw this. I am so sorry for your loss. Ron gave it everything he had. I know he is with God and has peace. I hope you will find it also to carry on.

    I am hoping Barbra does not mind that I am posting the email I received about Ron and Barbra and his passing, But I know everyone here is concerned about her and feel the saddness I do in her loss. I continue my prayers.

    I was asked to let all of you know that Ron died yesterday morning. It could only be described as a horrific death. Zella, or Barbra, as some of you know her and Jackie are not only devastated but completely beyond exhaustion. They some how managed to grant Ron his wish of being home until the end. Our concern right now is for them. Zella sent everyone away and is insisting on being alone at the farm. In respect for her wishes we will leave her alone for a time.

    Funeral plans have not been made. We will let you know when they are.

    Barbra and Ron have been like part of my family. Even tho we never met in person and were miles apart, it has always felt as if we were walking the road of this disease and the fight against it together. Ron was always just a little in front of me with treatment- “leading the way”-Passing on what I might expect. Encouraging me. His company and sense of humor will be sorely missed. I will always remember him saying he pictured chemo as leaches “yuck!” traveling through his body eating up the bad cells and that he was telling them to leave his hair alone! (It worked!)I chose to picture those little yellow gobbling faces and mine did not spare my hair!Barbra fought the fight right along with both of us-always there ,doing tons research into possible treatments,-always encouraging. Peace to you both!
