Several people have asked about my health.

Another cancer journey this year. Yep, cancer. Had surgery that removed half my thyroid. It was malignant – so was a lymph node. The plan: More surgery, then treatment for cancer that had spread.

Becky and I went to the Rogel Cancer Center - University of Michigan, and the story changed (understatement). Their procedure and deeper analysis showed no signs of cancer! Return every six months for monitoring? I’ll take it!

So how do I feel?

Grateful! Specifically for: 1) Becky, Erin & Justin, Scott & Maddie, 2) U of M, even though I’m a Boilermaker, 3) my surgeon who did well, 4) high school & college buddies who called, 5) our network of MI & IL friends, 6) the Port City Church family who loved me through it all (don’t stop). If you live near Muskegon and want an amazing church home, ours is filled with people who are the real deal.

Ancient wisdom says: “What comes out of a person’s mouth is an overflow of the heart.”

So – thank you, God.

Reviews, certifications, and service guarantees can help in evaluating providers. It’s also important to assess how well the service aligns with the restaurant's brand—luxury restaurants may require premium linen care, while casual eateries might prioritize speed and cost-efficiency.
