Just sad

My heart is so heavy today. Two guys (24 years old) were killed yesterday in the very early morning when the car they were riding in flipped and hit a house. The driver was drunk. She is in jail. The other passenger is in the hospital with life-threatening injuries. Travis just played golf with these guys a month ago. One of them is a Mt. Zion kid. I believe he was the oldest of 3 brothers--a former state golf champion. I hate that in one stupid moment, so many lives are changed forever. I hate that this kind of thing happens every day to someone out there. As a parent, I can't help thinking about what it must be like to get that phone call about your child. So sad. So, if you are the praying type, please say a prayer for the Yelovich and Samuelson families today because they definitely need all the prayers they can get.

And on another sad note, our local librarian, Jennie Alexander died last week. She was only fifty. Travis' Aunt Shelly is a librarian and used to work with Jennie. Every time we would go to the library, Jennie would always remember that Parker and Jack are Shelly's nephews. I love it when people make the time and effort to remember something like that. She will definitely be missed.
