I feel so privileged to have such a wonderful dad. As many of you know, he was recently diagnosed with Mantle B-Cell Lymphoma Cancer. The doctors have told us that his cancer is very advanced and he will have two years left at the very best, but we are hopeful for at least another twenty! He is doing several different therapies and trying as hard as he can to get his health back into a condition that he can enjoy his family and grandkids. I am so proud of him for persevering and pushing through when the constant pain and sickness would make it easy to give up. He is doing all he can to stay as long as he can, and we enjoy every second that he is still here. He just finished his third round of chemo before Father's Day, and the treatments are going quite well. Of course there are down days where he really feels the effects of the treatments, but he smiles and continues to live his life to the fullest.
He contines to work hard as President of Heritage Makers (www.heritagemakers.com) and will never stop dreaming or creating visions for the future of the company. He is continually centering the family as the heart of Heritage Maker's mission and values. We put together a book for him of all of the testimonies of his children, and their spouses, as well as the grandchildren. It was such a neat experience to see my dad read each page with tears in his eyes as he was able to recognize the legacy of faith he has instilled in each of us. If you have never made a book before and want an experience that will change your life forever, go to the website above and put your heritage into one of their products. It will be one of the most priceless and treasured experiences you will have, and generations to come will reap the benefits of your history.

Hi Nykelle! I found your blog from Darren and Lachelle's. That vacation looks so much fun! I'm jealous you got to see "Wicked!" One of these days I'll get Jordan to take me to a broadway musical. He would really like it if he would just go!
