Hi all,
I wanted to tell everyone a quick story about our wonderful QB. Anyway, my uncle and I are die hard Irish fans, as are the rest of our family . Unfortunately my uncle has been dying of advanced cancer for about a year. He is entering the final stages of his life. Although we live in California, our family is from Toledo. Anyway someone at Kizer's HS, asked me to send info about my uncle and his struggle. I did so, never really expecting anything to come of it .
Yesterday Deshone called my uncle and I and had some incredible inspiring words of support. What an incredible young man. He told me one of the greatest parts about being the ND QB is being able to touch lives and make a difference in the world. Well he did just that with my family and I wanted to share a text message and prayer he sent to me to read to my uncle. I hope you enjoy.
"Dear Lord,
May you lift Bobby's spirits high, fill his mind with your truth, and cover his heart with hope.
Protect him always, may he feel safe and secure besides you. Walk with him through each moment. Come be strength when he feels weak, be counsel when he needs comfort. Help him to rest, to lay down when he needs to and allow others to take the strain. Lord I pray that throughout this hard time he may know our love for him and Your love for all those around him. May he continue to inspire those close to him the way he inspires me. In your name I pray, amen.
Keep fighting the good fight Uncle Bobby. May the luck of the Irish be with you.
Your friend,
DeShone"
Truly a wonderful young man and a great example of what it means to be the head guy at ND. Thanks again Deshone !!!!!
