Tragedy

Dear friends,

I write to you tonite with a shattered heart...
My brother Michael was killed Saturday evening in California as a result of a collision caused by a large atv called a sandrail; he died on impact.

I can't even begin to explain how I feel; my brother was AMAZING, a gift from God to us all.
We've lost family members to terminal illness where we saw them suffer and knew we had to let them go on so the pain and suffering would end. But we've never lost someone in the way my brother was ripped from our lives.

Please just pray for him, pray that his sweet soul is at peace and he's found God and all our other family members in Heaven; pray that he will be at my side and everyone else who loved him.
Please pray that my mom can find strength to go on and live life and please pray that I can continue as well.

Here is my baby  brother on my wedding day; he walked me down the aisle and gave me away- as my dad couldn't be there to do it ♥

RIP brother ♥

Dear Noelle,
My youngest brother died at age 39 when he was hit by a car crossing a double lane neighborhood street. I know what it feels like...My prayers are for those your brother left behind as he is in Gods arms now..one day we will see them again. Time will give you back a bit of happiness.
