Just received an email from City Manager Mike Walker with an update on our Planning Director Joe Lassus. He and his family continue to need our prayers and good thoughts.
Mike reports that while the core tumor in Joe's brain was removed, the doctor said small areas remain. He is expected to start radiation and chemotherapy treatments next week. He will not be able to return to work for at least three months.
"Naomi says that Joe is functioning very well at home with most activities except for his speech. The doctor told her that you are never able to remove a tumor completely – the goal is to keep it dormant and not grow back.
"Please keep Joe and Naomi in your prayers in the weeks ahead," Mike writes.
Will do
