Jay Allen, country singer, ended up getting matching tattoos with an ‘actual angel.’ The only thing he and the ‘angel’ have in common? Faith and ink. And that’s exactly how God brought them together.
Doctors diagnosed Don Caskey with stage four kidney cancer a couple of years ago. After that, Don immediately began living each day like it was his last. He wanted to get matching tattoos with people close to him so he could take them with him.
