If you have religious beliefs, please say a pray for a friend of mine, 4 star general Robert W. Cone who recently died of prostate cancer at the age of 59 after a gallant 4 year battle.

R.I.P. Robert. As a young guy dealing with PCa, my heart sinks hearing news like this. Another brother down, so sad.

I have no religious beliefs. Yet I extend my condolences to the loved ones and salute the gallant General who has departed from us too early in his life.

Sad to lose another warrior (PCa fighter and American hero) We wish his loved ones who are left behind well. At the same time we celebrate his life that has achieved so much at a relatively young age. General Cone, we salute you!

Blessings to you and his family. I pray they remember all his good qualities and his fight of this disease. Always a reminder of how difficult this battle is for everyone of us. I pray he knew Jesus and is now with him, renewed and at peace.

Do you have any info on the General's PCa diagnosis and what course of treatment he followed.

He went through over 60 rounds of chemo to keep going. Plus all the other available dugs.

To the General Cone's family and friends, may you find comfort in knowing the General was a positive influence on all those who served our Nation, under his Command. Then there are the many, who were inspired by the General's valiant fight on his journey with prostate cancer. As he inspired in life- in death his legacy will continue to inspire.

I am sadden by a fellow warrior to this disease at an early age. Rest In Peace General. Amen.
