This comforting little arrangement was in the house at Mission Central:

Just slipping into the blog-stream this afternoon quickly to ask for thoughts and prayers for the family of the boy who took his own life the other day. His name is Kyle. His funeral is today. In addition-------more tragedy for that family-------my daughter phoned last evening to say that the boy's uncle and the uncle's girlfriend were killed on Wednesday evening. They had left the funeral home visitation on a motorcycle, and were struck by a drunk driver, and both killed. The father who just lost his only son to suicide has now also lost his only brother to a tragic accident. I know bad things happen every second of every day in every part of the world, but please give a quick thought and prayer for this situation. Thank you.
