Bill beat pancreas cancer 3 years ago, now his wife has melanoma


I learned about it over a few beers with them tonight. She has a good outlook on what might be ahead.

They are both union members which means good insurance. They have lots of friends giving lots of love and support.

Please post your get well wishes here, so they can be passed on.
