Special cigars - Prayers needed

My wife's counsin, Ken, has terminal cancer and may just have a few weeks left. I only met him a few times but we became better acquinted during the last few months by trading email jokes.

One of his last wishes was to take a fishing trip to Canada with his dad, brothers and uncles. My father-in-law just returned from the 10-day trip with a special gift for me:

5'er of Phillies Blunt Banana
5'er of Phillies Blunt Mango
5'er of Swisher Sweets Honey Flavor
A White Owl Blunts Xtra tubo

Someone had brought these on the trip as a joke. Since I'm the cigar smoker in the family, it was decided that I should have them. I didn't know whether to laugh or cry.

I thought you all would appreciate the gift and I hope you will keep Ken and his family in your prayers.
