I am sitting here in stunned silence. Please, please say a prayer for Gretchen and her family. Her young son, while waiting at the bus stop for his brother, was hit by a car and killed. I found out via Julie in her journal.
I will be praying for Gretchen and her family....for strength to get through this horrible situation, to know and feel God's protective arms around them, and for peace in their hearts and minds while trying to answer the question "why".
Gretchen, Ben, Caitlin and Justin....you are in our thoughts and prayers. We all love you and are praying for you and your angel Matthew. God bless you all.
*Here is a link to the obituary. There is an online guestbook if you would like to leave a message for the family.

oh man my heart goes out to the family
so sorry to hear
that just breaks my heart
I read about that from julie too what a horrible start to the summer and no words seem good enough. Kind of makes us all feel blessed no matter what a bad year it seems to have been .
May God wrap his arms around that poor family and may they find comfort in our prayers. I can only imagine the pain they must be feeling. What a terrible tragedy. Just rips your heart out.
