My father, Wild Bill Davis, is 65 years old and we just learned he has a mass on his liver. His days are numbered but he has always wanted to visit Alaska. My little sister and I have tried to save for this trip several times, but as we all know Life Happens and we would end up needing to spend our savings. We figured while we were there exploring the wonderful wildlife in Alaska that we would find a wildlife charity that would need some volunteer help in cleaning up the trash and/or whatever area they needed. In a way to pay back for the help that we recieve to make my Dads wish come true. He's always been a very vibrant and happy man, and all who know him have never had any unkind words to say about him. A Navy vet, Father of 3 and Grandfather of 10 and soon to be  a Great Grandfather. I know he will hold on as long as he can for us three girls, and the grandbabies. TO be able to do this for our biggest cheerleader and  fan in life would be such a blessing.
