ModeratorDear Nancy,
I’m very sorry to hear about your loss. My condolences to you and Ron’s family. Although many will get hope from the 8 years, I still wish it could have been longer.
Take care,

ModeratorNancy…. Ron and you have been a long standing member of this board. In 2007 you joined a relatively small group of people and stayed with us throughout the years. It is with a heavy heart that I express my most sincere condolences on Ron’s passing.
Ron will never be forgotten on this site and in our hearts.
Hugs and love,

ModeratorNancy, I am so sorry to hear that your Ron has passed. I am glad that he had so many quality years after diagnosis. Nevertheless, it is still so painful to lose a dear one. May you treasure all the time you had together and may you find comfort in all of your wonderful memories.

SpectatorDear Nancy,
I too was shocked by this. Ron was doing so well for so long and he did put up a good fight. At least he did not suffer for long and was at peace in the end. I’m hoping that brings you some comfort and peace of mind. There are no words to make this better, but I hope in time your sadness will ease and you will be able to remember the good times. Know that he will always be with you in your heart and those memories. Know that my thoughts and prayers are with you at this sad & trying time.
Hugs,

MemberNancy…you have my deepest sympathy with the loss of your dear Ron. Along with Pat, and I’m sure many others, including myself on these boards, Ron’s passing will come as a deep shock. While 8 and a half years is a long time with this cancer, it is never long enough when we’d rather keep our loved ones with us. My prayers are with you now. Julie T.

SpectatorDearest Nancy, I am so sorry to read that Ron’s valiant fight has ended and he was certainly a beacon of HOPE for this site. Please accept my humble condolences.
It is hard to sing of oneness when our world is not complete, when those who once brought wholeness to our life have gone. Nothing but memory can fill the emptiness their passing leaves behind.
But memory can tell us only what we were, in company with those we loved.
It cannot help us find what each of us, alone, must now become.
Yet no one is really alone; those who live no more, echo still within our thoughts and words. What they did is part of what we have become.
We pay homage to our departed when we live our lives most fully, even in the shadow of our loss.February 21, 2016 at 1:00 am #91717hercules
ModeratorDear Nancy, I was shocked to read about the return of Ron’s cancer and even more of his passing. It has helped me to realize you cannot be too cavalier about this terrible cancer. Ron knew that seven years is more than many have gotten, I am so sorry to hear his fight is over. God bless you and all of Ron’s family, Pat

SpectatorIt is with great sadness and broken heart that I share with you Ron passed away on February 4. As I have previously posted, Ron was cancer free for 7 years following his resection. The cancer decided to return 1 1/2 years ago. We were in denial because CT nor MRI showed any evidence of cancer. CA-199 was less than 100. Blood work showed a different story. In the end, he did not have to suffer long. His fatigue level was the only thing that caused discomfort.
Ron felt truly blessed to have lived 8 1/2 years with this dreadful cancer and was totally at piece when he passed.
I pray daily for the people on this website fighting the odds. You will all remain in my positive thoughts and prayers.
Hugs,
Nancy -
