Fucking Cancer!!

Within four hours last night I lost a friend to cancer and found out another friend is batting the disease again!

R.I.P Larry Jr.

You were a great friend, a terrific boss and great family man.

You deserved better!

I've written here before the impact of the General Grant Longley on my life! He saved me! Any success I had is a result of him looking over me while I played for him at Salem State! Well Generals backbone was always his wife Anne Marie.

I found out last night that Anne Marie is in a serious battle with stage four bone cancer.  I love Anne Marie! When I fucked up, she would always give me that look that said "Ross, You're better than that"!

I'm not sure what to say hear, except Godspeed AnneMarie! You've beaten this demon before!

I got my run on at lunch! it matters so little to me today! But it was a good run. 4 miles, two minutes quicker than last time! New sneakers felt excellent!

I have a lot to say, but not today!

Keep the faith

Ross

P.S. Hammer, nothing i can say can take your pain away, just know I'm thinking of you!
