There really are no words that can be said here, other than to echo the wise posts already written....
Bill - it sounds like you are managing this well; you are to be commended for getting your house in order (and thinking of others before yourself, even in this situation). You can trust that your faith is in the right place, and you have my family's prayers and best wishes for this transition and the next phase of your (eternal) life. K

Bill, you have been and will continue to be an inspiration to myself and so many others.
Your faith in God and desire for his glorification should be an example we all try to model ourselves after. I am honored to call you friend.

Bill, I think Keith Seymore's thoughts are what I wanted to say, but could not put the words together.
You are fortunate to have time to get those things in order, and I'm sure you have many friends who will help with those things you are not up to. Do not be afraid to ask them. There is no greater honor than to help a fellow man fulfill his final wishes. You are in my prayers as well. Steve Barr |

I don't think I could be as strong as you have been through this - you are and have been an inspiration.
Best, Chris

Bill,
If I could make it back down I'd somehow get you back in the car for a few more hot laps around Sebring. Last year was fun, one of the highlights of the year for me. You were chatty as a school girl afterward. Also enjoyed riding in Duece out on Sanibel, still gotta wonder what that traffic cop thought when you power shifted it while he was standing there.

Words cannot describe how much I appreciate all of your thoughts and prayers guys. I am humbled.
I truly don't know how much more time I have, but I am going downhill pretty fast. Each week I am getting more winded doing basic stuff around the house and is getting worse. One of my passions is the work I do for my church's car care ministry. I initially didn't want to take time out of my schedule to change the oil for widows and single moms, but it has been an awesome way for me to serve with a bunch of car guys and help out those less fortunate than me. So when it is time, at my memorial, there will be no flowers. Instead, friends can donate a case or 2 of oil to the car care ministry. Imagine how many cases of oil will be at the alter? Pretty cool sight I'm guessing for being a car guy.  Thanks PY gang

Well I'm just floored. I pray for you every night at bed time, holding back the tears typing this, and a lump in my throat all I can say is I will continue to pray for you, and hope you can stay strong. Knowing others really do care has pulled me out of many low times through my treatments, and up's and downs with my battle. I also refuse to give up on the thought that there's no hope. Hope is always possible and miracles do happen. You have a place in my heart and I will continue to keep you there and keep the positive in mind.
Fly like your Bird Bill, and soar to a new day.

My prayers go out to you Bill. With all you're going through you're still thinking about the less fortunate and what you can do for them. I believe in Jesus Christ and I believe He'll be there to greet you when the time does come. God bless. Mark O.

The PY Online Forums is the largest online gathering of Pontiac enthusiasts anywhere in the world. Founded in 1991, it was also the first online forum for people to gather and talk about their Pontiacs. Since then, it has become the mecca of Pontiac technical data and knowledge that no other place can surpass.
