The Beginning

Hey Everyone, Holly here. (Ric's daughter for those that don't know) I had the idea of putting all of our updates on a blog.... mostly because we forget to call some of you who care...and believe me- we appreciate ALL of you, it just becomes a little hectic trying to inform everyone, remembering who we've already updated, and sometimes we're just too exhausted or overwhelmed and don't want to talk to anyone. (I'm being brutally honest.) Please don't take it personally! :) We love all of you and are feeling SO blessed by the abundance of people who are offering love, prayers, support and so much more. Sometimes we just want to be with the four of us - to discuss the situation and be a family. It doesn't mean don't call if you really want to - it just means we might not be able to answer, and it might take awhile for us to get back to you. This whole thing is very unexpected, emotional, and really really exhausting. Anyway... with all that said... Between me, Mom (Roxanne) & Rocky we are going to do our best to put any updates on progress, information, etc. on here as soon as we are able to. We ask that you use this as your main place to get info &/or send messages or comments to my dad or us. By all means feel free to send us emails or text messages also. :) It is so uplifting to hear all the wonderful and loving things you have to say about my dad and to know that there are hundreds (really!! hundreds!!) of people praying for him. My mom will be posting about the whole discovery, and this last weekend/week (March 18th-today)... so please check back soon. Thanks again, please keep praying.. :) Love - Holly
