Hey Marv Williams. I remember all those workout 🏋️♀️ sessions we had together on the 9th floor at CHE back in the day. You are definitely one of the toughest and physically fit members of the LAFD that I have known. I’m so sorry to hear about this bout with cancer. There are few that I know that have the strength and determination to combat this disease. Just goes to show, cancer can creep up on the toughest among us. My thoughts and prayers are in the cloud and heading your way. Here’s to better days coming brother. 🙏
