    We grew up without fathers. No single man in my life has been more consistently kind and compassionate, more dependable, more protective than this man - Jason King. He's been a saint to me since I was a boy. Never a single moment he didn't show up when I needed him. Not one.https://twitter.com/shaunking/status/1042594949877952512 …

    Please pray for my family. My dear brother, diagnosed with pancreatic cancer just 4 weeks ago, may not live through the night. Our dear mother, his sweet wife, and their young kids are devastated. We are all so heartbroken. Wish so badly I could fix it and I just can't.

        Once after a long shift at Cheesecake Factory, Jason and I were finishing up some work and talked about our goals. Jason shared his dream of starting a non-profit after I told him my goal of being the lawyer for one. His kindness/compassion were unparalleled. He is truly amazing

        I'm so sorry about your brother @shaunking. I understand what you are going through as my dear Aunt passed away within weeks of her pancreatic cancer diagnosis a few years ago. My heart goes out to you and your family.

        Hold his hand, tell him you love him. It is by far one of the most difficult times in life. Tell him exactly what he meant to you. Your strength will be your mom and family. I am so sorry.

        Shaun, that is heartbreaking news and I’m incredibly sorry. Take solace in knowing a man that many, if not all, could never replicate. His influence runs deep through your work. Your words - compassionate, kind, and protective; they resonate in a world found wanting.

        You’re either a bot or troll. Either way, I would be lucky to call Shaun a brother. He’s a kind, compassionate, and protective person, to which I hold in the highest of regards. Shame on you for trying to sully the name of two outstanding men.

        I’m an American patriot. I disagree with Shaun Kings race-baiting lies. Many things he tweets about including BLM flagship lie that cops are blatantly killing black men because of their race is a lie. Support our troops and law enforcement and stop dividing America with race.

        This was my sister Marilyn; 12 years older, had to share a room with me, babysit me, take me with her on dates, and still was always my best friend. Lost her 15 yrs ago. Miss her every day. Your love for your brother will always endure. That's the gift you've given each other.

        @shaunking at 24 I lost my father to pancreatic cancer last July. It‘s truly a devastating & brutal disease. Should thinks last longer and I pray they do, purchase the drink Body armor. At the the end, it was the only way to fight dehydration. Coconut oil helps. Much love brother
