Came across a link to this thread while reading another.

I did not know about Lil John Buttera's battle with Cancer

Does anyone have any word on how he is doing?

 

There have been posts that my Dad has passed, although hes struggling he is hanging in there. Keep the good thoughts going. Leigh

 

I'm really, really glad to hear that. I'll keep'em coming.

 

Thanks for the update,.... please let Him know how much he is respected,..
He is still on my prayer list,......

 

Thanks Leigh, many of us were hoping things improve for him.

 

thoughts goin out....

 

Continued prayers and thought's go out to Mr. Buttera and the family. Folks need to be careful how the process what they read and pass along.
God bless all---

 

The NJ crowd keep thinking of him, please make sure that he knows how much he is respected here.

Thanks Leigh for the update. He has a lot of people who admire him on here and a regular update would sure be appreciated. Let him know there are those who feel his work is far from done and are waiting for his next contribution.

Dam hes a fighter. He has been one of my idols for years. Both hot rodding and drag racing. I hope you are back up to full speed very soon . Best of luck from Down under.

 

Good to hear. I was hoping things were getting better.

Prayers are sent your way!

He's gone. Prayers to his friends and family. Way too many heros leaving us.

 

Huh ?? What happened ?? It was just posted he was doin okay ?? This must be like what it felt like in Feb. '59......

 

Go back to page 14. It read's he is on the mend.........

 

are you stating a fact, or repeating internet rumors?

 

I found it here, on my T Bucket site, then I called someone.

leigh we all pray that your dad does better but we also hope things go well for you and the rest of your family RED

 

He has always been a guy I admired. Someone I would call A craftsman.
I would like to meet him.

 

at 5:29 this evening leigh says his dad is fighting but still with us the Tbucket site says he passed this morning. I think people should get the info correct before they send it on.

 

The person I called knew him through a shop in the area. He said he had heard it, but wasn't sure. I hope he and the T bucket sight were wrong and I appoligise if I have caused confusion and distress. The person I called is reliable, but he only said he had heard it.

 

Keep us updated. I hope he's still doing okay...

 

I hope to God he is okay.

 

Leigh is Li'l John's daughter. I think people should get the info correct before they send it on.

 

FFS, out of basic RESPECT....delete your post, if you've posted the incorrect facts! Just because another forum is uninformed, doesn't mean this one has to be.

Get well John.

 

Trust me if you ever saw Leigh you wouldn't think she was his son!
