Fred’s Story

Site created on March 17, 2019

Fred's story started in February of 2019 when he went for an ultrasound that prompted him to get an MRI. After receiving the diagnosis of cancer on his kidney, the doctor wanted him to have a full body scan to make sure the cancer hadn't spread. Unfortunately they found it in his lungs and on his brain, all which are stage 4.  He is currently being treated at Fox Chase in Philadelphia.

Journal entry by Megan Gebbie —

     Today, Saturday May 21st 2022, around 4:50AM , Dad went peacefully with mom by his side. As much pain and sadness that we have sharing this news, we are comforted knowing that he is no longer suffering. Dad fought hard the past three years and we cherished every moment we had with him. 

     We are currently making plans for a memorial service and we will share any information as soon as possible. Please reach out to my sisters and I with any questions.
