This blog site dedicated to providing a source of encouragement for Joey Pigg, who was diagnosed with lymphoma on 15-OCT-2008, from his friends and family.
A little background regarding Joey will be included here. Joey was born 24-AUG-1988 to Dan and Tammy Pigg of southern Vigo County in Indiana. Joey has always been a special person, enthusiastic, engergetic, interested in outdoors, sports, gifted in many ways, but perhaps the best word to describe Joey is "motivated". He became interested in sports at the age of 5, participated in youth baseball and football starting out with Honey Creek and Dixie Bee and ending at Franklin College. He was all-state honorable mention, defensive MVP for North Central High School in Sullivan County in 2005 when the Thunderbirds were Southwest Seven co-conference champions and was selected to play in the Wabash Valley All-Star game in June, 2006. He was second team all-conference in baseball his junior and senior year in high school. Joey is an avid fisherman, with several "tours of duty" in the Boundary Waters Canoe Area of Minnesota, Sullivan Lake, the Wabash River and the Ohio River. Joey's outdoor activities also include hunting and archery.
Also included in Joey's background are special people whom Joey looks up to and whom Joey will need hope and inspiration from during his present juncture in life. Included in this group are coaches Brian Crabtree, Jim Davis, and Trent Olson, his parents, grandparents, special friends Paul and Kathy Stone, Bob and Sally Pullen, Ronnie and Shelly Enstrom, Elaine Abel, cousin Charley, uncle Dave and aunt Carolyn, aunt Diane and uncle Dennis, pastor John and his brother Andy. The list does not stop there, however. Joey is going to need his friends, prayer, hope, nourishment, and most of all healing so that he can accomplish the many, many things God has in mind for him.
Please take time to say a prayer for Joey. If God so moves you, drop him a line or two here in this blog. Joey will need all the encouragement he can get. And Thanks.
Remember the words of Paul in Romans, "for I am convinced that nothing,,, can separate us from the love of God".
