Brice had a huge loss in his family

Post by Panerai7 » Sun Nov 27, 2016 1:50 pm

I'm sure most of you have heard that Brice's daughter Ember had passed away on Thanksgiving morning after many months of struggle with a tumor that doctors to this day are clueless on how it should have been treated.
He asked me to pass on a note to DWC family while he's staying away from the forums.

"I haven't gone on the forums but if you could post a quick thread to let people know on DWC. Many folks have sent me notes of encouragement and prayers for Ember the last couple of months and I wanted them to know she is now living in Heaven and no longer in pain. I also want them to know I am extremely thankful for all the PMs and other notes I've received.
Also someone at church started a gofundme for Jon and the babies. We are now dealing with funeral expenses and he has huge medical bills ahead plus taking care of the babies but we'll be here for that of course. Maybe could post the link on the forum thread for anyone inclined to help the family?

Please let everyone know how thankful I am to those who reached out and prayed for us and helped"

I heard a couple of days ago. Devastating to say the least. I can't even imagine what their family is going through. Matt was going to post the link to the gofundme campaign but it looks like you got there first.

He had mentioned to me a while ago that he was dealing with a serious family issue, but did not elaborate.

Terrible news.

Thanks for putting this out, Art. Ember was a mother of 2 young children. Her husband has enough on his plate without worrying about medical bills. Let's all do whatever we can to help, even if it's just a little bit.

Absolutely horrible situation. No parent should ever have to bury a child. My deepest sympathies to the whole family in their time of need.

That is any parents worst nightmare, and no parent should have to endure such a loss. So sorry for he and his family, thoughts and prayers are with him.

Hadn't seen any comment on this from Brice since he said he was making a trip with his daughter to see a doctor. I was hoping for the best. How sad.
Hopefully given time the thanksgiving holiday can become a holiday of remembrance for Brice and his family.
