If you have a second and can spare a prayer....

One of our HS members, Shevis Irons, (aka Pockey, aka Dennis,) posted this just a bit ago over on OBs. 

"So, my Orangeblood brothers, I've been told there's nothing more that can be done.

So even though I have been heeled, the Journey in this world comes to an end. I moved to Hospice Care today.

Thanks for the prayers, they were all answered."

If you have a minute to say a small prayer to whomever you pray to, please say one for Dennis; a great man, father, husband, Longhorn and friend. 

He's got a great attitude, spirit and a zest for life like no other.  And please keep his wife and family in your thoughts as they go through this as well. 

Thanks-Jeff

If you've ever met Dennis just once, he makes you feel like you've known one another your entire lives.  The best of the best and a solid Longhorn.

Please continue to pray for him.

I don't know him either but if I'm ever faced with his challenges I hope I can muster 1/10 his guts.

I am much saddened to hear this. I just hope I can face the end with half his grace and courage.
