My prayers go out to John's family. I enjoyed his posts greatly and his insight on cutlery.

I am truly sorry to hear this.

I did not know John .. except through iKC.

His responses spoke to a very generous nature.

He will certainly be missed.

Prayers for those he left behind.

Godspeed, John.

I'm so saddened and shocked by all of the sad news John McCain was such a great person. Praying for all those affected by his loss and the loss of so many fantastic people who have been part of the IKC family.

Let us all raise up in Prayer. I have no details but our member and Friend, Garett Finney is in ICU at this time. Dear Lord, Please bring to Garett your healing love. Watch out over his family as they look to you for guidance and comfort through this trying time.

1/31/17

They were unable to do surgery on Bret as the blockage is too close to the brain stem. They have given him some super meds to dissolve the clot and keep the blood flowing as it should. GOOD NEW UPDATE: He has been cleared to go back to driving local truck as of Feb 13!!

An update from my niece

January 1st pops had a TIA. Which he recovered from quickly. Upon farther testing they have found that both his main arteries are blocked going to his brain. Last night a piece of the blockage broke off and caused a stroke in his lower brain by his spinal column. The doctor wants to start him on Plavix and talk to the surgeon that does the angioplasty. He remains in the hospital at least until that discussion has been had
