Tell us about yourself:
I'm an automotive repair man and businessman. I had my own business up until 2018, when I came down with third stage rectal cancer, so I went through major surgery and then spent 9 months of 2019 in intensive chemotherapy and radiation. Since then I've had to retire and I've been in recovery. I've got three years clean from cancer. I just take one day at a time. I love camping, traveling, and my family life. Darren lost his battle with a rare form of cancer in May of 2018. Thank you for helping him stay positive during his journey.
Kristen lost her battle in November of 2018. Thank you for helping her stay positive during this journey.
I am blessed to be living because I have plenty of my friends that are not. From my former student to a colleague and others, and that’s hard.
