We got word this morning that my brother in law passed away last night after battling terminal cancer for the past year. I’m headed to Virginia this morning to become legal guardian for my nephew. I imagine I’ll be gone anywhere from 1-3 weeks while we figure out the legal processes. Thanks for all the kind messages, good thoughts and prayers sent our way. They are appreciated.
