To begin on a personal note, I would like to sincerely thank all who have reached out with your prayers, compassion and support for my dad (Danny Ross) following his diagnosis/treatment of cancer over the past year. This has obviously been a difficult time for him and my entire family, but your thoughts and prayers have meant the world to all of us. I truly believe that this made the difference in his recovery after his surgery and two months of radiation/chemotherapy. It’s a reminder to me of how blessed I am to represent a part of the state that is home to such caring, considerate folks. Whether you were part of the group (church/friends) that cut firewood, if you asked how he was doing, or prayed for his healing; thank you again for all of your support. I’m pleased to report that he’s back to doing the things he enjoys: farming, trucking, and playing with his grandkids (my boys). Far too many across our state and nation are afflicted with this horrible disease, and I look forward to the day that advances in medicine erase cancer from the list of issues that our society must continue to fight.
