A death in the family

Today we learned that Herman's uncle, Charlie Hartman, passed away last night. It has been a whirlwind 2 weeks since we found out that he had cancer. They still hadn't figured out what kind of cancer it was. Herman and I were able to go up and visit Thursday. He was barely conscious and had the death rattle. He hadn't eaten in weeks, and was quite drawn. He reminded me a lot of my dad just before he passed.

Last night, around the time of his death, Herman and I were picking up Charlie's siblings from the airport. Sadly they were not able to get to his side before he died. I think we may be going up there today.

Herman is rather devastated as he was incredibly close to his uncle. We ask that you keep us all in your prayers.
