My Wife's Older Brother Has Passed Away

Post by Nick Reed »

Linda's brother "Dwight Spain" passed away monday 1/25/10 after a year long bout with Brain & Lung Cancer, he was 63 years of age. All of the family was gathered around his bedside as life support was dis-connected and we watched him breathe his last breath. Please keep Linda and her 4 other brothers in your thoughts and prayers.

Nick and Linda,

I can only imagine the family's strength and love this past year - especially at the moment you set Dwight free.

God bless you and keep you all . . .
