Dave DuBois - MG Fuel Pump Guy

[Doug Pelton]

This is a health update for those that know or have done business with Dave Dubois.  I consider him the subject expert on our little tick tick SU fuel pumps.  He is not doing well as you can see by his wife’s note below.  If anyone would like to drop a note of encouragement Dave’s email is:  sufuelpumps@donobi.net

Doug, This is Liz, Dave's wife, responding for him.  Last February, after 13 years in remission, Dave's lymphoma returned with a vengeance.  He was put on chemo therapy which we thought (hoped) was working.  But by August the lymphoma bounded back and he went to a brutal 5-day chemo session in the hospital following by 15 days recovery at home.  After 5 or the 6 planned cycle, it wasn't working and he was getting worse.  The doctor switched him to an oral chemo, with the eye to getting him in condition to go to Seattle for CAR-T Cell Therapy.  He also tried radiation to stop the pain in an enlarging mass on/in his lung.  Nothing worked; we never made it to Seattle.  He spent Friday in the ER, was back in the ER on Sunday and remained in the hospital until we brought him home Friday afternoon.  He is now on Hospice...so very sad!.  He has fought lymphoma since mid-February and, as he told me the other day, "I just want to go home".  David, our son, came from Pennsylvania to help out and he has been a real blessing. Liz

Very sad news. I've met Dave several times and he's a great guy. He definitely knows his stuff on these pumps. - Steve Simmons, TC8975 On 1/19/2019 9:35 AM, 'Doug Pelton' doug@fromtheframeup.com [mg-tabc] wrote:

Dave has been very helpful ever since I got into T Series cars. So sorry to hear this. Perhaps someone who knows his wife could tell her to look at the MG Experience site for comments about Dave. Most people won't have their address and it will be the site will be the only way to send well wishes. https://www.mgexp.com/phorum/read.php?46,3876957 Tim
