A moment of silence please, we've lost a member of the board

As you probably all know, the board software automatically sends birthday wishes to all members on their birthday. I just received this email in response to one of those messages:

Wow, that is rough!

All I can say is where ever he is, his fate is sealed. Place yourself in his shoes. Where would you be? Just something to ponder.

But anyway, he has left family behind and my prayers do go out to them. For they are left with a giant heart ache I am sure. To say nothing of at least a wife if not kids now unsupported and faced with no husband/dad to come home to.

I do thank her for letting us know though. And if you hear of or know of any way that we can help, I would love to know about it.

In prayer,
Bryan

It always is bad news to find out someone died, even if you didn't know them well, or at all. Like you all say we can only hope it was painless, and he was happy, and is happy now. let him rest in peace
