In October of last year my brother Eric Despain was given a diagnosis of stage IV squamous cell carcinoma. After a difficult battle against this aggressive cancer he has been placed on hospice. Eric, age 43, will leave behind five children ages 20, 14, 9, 8, and a 4 day old son. He is a beloved brother, father, son, and friend who has spent his life with a true servants heart. Over the next few weeks we are attempting to raise money to cover the cost of his funeral and to help care for his children in the wake of their loss.
I have no words to describe how deep of a loss this will be to all of us. Any donations will be greatly appreciated and used to directly cover his end of life expenses and to the benefit of his children.
