We got a phone call this morning that my DH's friend died in a car accident this morning on his way to work. He works with my DH, and is only 30 and has two little kids. The oldest is 10. His wife called the work center after she received the news and they called Chris at home since he is on vacation this week. They have a lunchin on Monday for the guys for Christmas and all the money that they raised for it is going to the guys wife for expenses and stuff. I thought that was soo sweet.

How terribly sad. No time is good for this obviously, but the holidays are going to make it extra hard. I will keep this family in my thoughts and prayers.
