Please Pray

Austin's Uncle Bill passed away today. Theresa Schwartz, one of Austin's cousins (and a very near and dear friend to me now) e-mailed the following to me today:

He was found to have stage 4 cancer in his stomach and when they were trying to do a bowel resection, his bowel/intestine burst. The doctors weren't sure that he would ever wake up. He did wake up and was in terrible pain. There was no more that could be done for him. He passed away at 12:30 am.

Please pray for Aunt Patty, Uncle Bill's children, as well as all of their nieces and nephews during this time. Bill was such an incredibly sweet man everytime we saw him, and he definitely will be missed by us all.
