Jim Zetz is only 62 years old, but he has stage 4 pancreatic cancer. With only a few months to live, Jim will not be able to see his 11-year-old daughter Josie marry. Knowing this, Lindsay Villatolo, a close friend of the Zetz family,
arranged a surprise that they would cherish forever. To give Jim a chance to celebrate one of his daughter’s most important life moments, Villatoro arranged a mock wedding on Josie’s 11th birthday!
Villatoro was able to get donations for the catering, wedding cake, Jim’s suit, and Josie’s wedding dress, which came from LA Fashion Week.“Your dad may not get to see you get married, but he is here to walk you down the aisle today.
”It was an incredibly touching ceremony for a beautiful family. It wasn’t easy for anyone involved…But no matter what, their love and precious memories will live on forever.
Jim had been suffering through chemotherapy for three months however he decided to end the treatments and enjoy the remainder of his life. With little time left, the Zetz family tries to set goals and do something special every week.
