The amazingly supportive Decker family is now in need of support for themselves. Tuesday, May 18 Roy had brain surgery to remove a tumor. The preliminary results indicate glioblastoma multiforme (GBM). They are quite devastated with this news, so friends and family can be there to help, as the Deckers have been there for others. A Meal Train (
https://mealtrain.com/z0g89d) as well as this Caringbridge site have been set up to support this beautiful family. They are in the beginning stages of figuring out this journey, and if you'd like to help, check out either of these sites, which will continue to be updated. Thank you!
