I received the information below earlier this afternoon. Johnny Davis is our Repeater Trustee. Please keep him and his family in your prayers
I have just received some sad information concerning the condition of our fellow ham and friend, Johnny Davis - K5JD. Mary Ann just called to let me know that Johnny has entered in out home hospice as a result of advancing Parkinson's and Melanoma. His condition is not good and. he is now in a terminal phase. While nothing is certain, some estimates from his doctors suggest that he may not have as little as 6 weeks to live.
I ask that you help me fan out this information to as broad of a group as possible. Mary Ann would appreciate your support and prayers. I doubt that Johnny can receive any visitors but calling Mary Ann to leave a message of support for her and Johnny would be wonderful. |
