Stay strong!! You are in our prayers!!

Rachel(Enke)Smith & family
Thanks Megan for taking the time to do this. Your dad is loved by so many and we all keep him in our prayers each day and on the prayer roll in the temple. It is nice to have updates about his progress. Please send our love to him and your mom, Shelley. Give her a big hug from me. Love, Karen and Mike Finnigan
Just for the record. We aren't in New Zealand but are now working in the San Diego temple. :-)
Hi Megan,
Thank you for the update, we were wondering if our stake is going to have a special fast for your dad?
We have been praying for him , but the spirit tells us to ask for this fast. One of our grandchildren was born with a heart condition n a special fast was call for him n he made it .We pray that all goes well on the 11th.
Love to you n your family . Love Art n Linda Watson.
Hi, Megan. I'm a friend of Vinny's from high school. I just wanted you to know that your dad will be in my prayers EVERY DAY.
Brother Holladay,
I am so sorry to hear of this trial you are going through. I know it is difficult but you are such a strong man and have such faith, I know you are being watched over. I have forwarded this blog to all my family. We all admire you and I know I personally have always looked up to you. I will pray for you daily. Megan thanks for all the info. Look forward to seeing the progress and am so excited he was able to have some movement in his hand.
