Can't enjoy my wine man! The stress & distress it brings to the ones I love.


We must live & love every day as fully as we are allowed. And, look forward because that's the only direction you can go.


We will make an arrangement with a local colon cancer support group.


Multiple flushes of bloody stool, spontaneous initiation & resolution, over four hours in mid-December 2004. Analyzed by a PA to probably be a manifestation of diverticulitis shown on sigmoidoscopy 2 yrs before. Six weeks later further flushings resulted in ER admission to Holy Cross Hospital January 31, 2005.


Blood transfusion immediately, multiple tests, & scheduled colonoscopy resulted in surgery Feb 5, 2005, showing the presence of a tumor just above the appendix that had to be removed. A 2 foot long section of the colon was removed & the ends reattached. Biopsy showed stage 4 disease with metastasis to the peritoneum.

GrandPa's HandsViews: 738

OK, we’re running with a music theme here, specifically a song by Bill Withers called “GrandMa’s Hands”. A very powerful and thought provoking tune about a child’s/man’s memories of his loved ones hands and how much they accomplished.

So with no further delays,

I can’t wait to see if my nephews will take to skateboarding when they get a little older. I will be so happy to take them to skateparks and ride around with them. They are both so healthy and happy, Annette is an amazing Momma!

Pop Pop is surrounded by love while he shows lots of courage and volumes of integrity and compassion. He truly is emitting an amazing glow of positivity. Amazing to spend this time together and marinate in the wonderful glow of David and Josh…and Annette of course!

Hey there!
Thanks for the photo gallery. I love seeing how much the boys have grown since I’ve last seen them…and great to see you all having such fun times together!
Love to all, Jaime

Wonderful pictures of such a handsome family. I wish I was there to each one of you a big squeeze.
Love you and think of you often!

Alrighty then…since nobody else is going to point this out, I will.

I think I have discovered why daddylane is always smiling, mommalane looks kinda cute in the floral swim suit…smile.

I’m just sayin.

Wonderful photos. Thanks for sharing

Dear Jerry, Marion and Tim

I am Annette’s aunt-in-law (Jack’s aunt). We met briefly at Annette and Jack’s wedding. I am sorry I don’t know you better.

I recently learned of your blog. It is amazing. What a celebration of life. You are in my thoughts every day.
