A Hard Good-bye

Today was hard.  While in Florida on spring break, one of Coleman's Outlaws teammates was hit by a car and killed.  Jamie was 13 years old.  The funeral was today and the family requested that all of his former teammates form an honor guard for the casket to pass through going into the church.  It was a wonderful tribute.

You will be missed, number 8.

For those who have asked: The funeral will be held Monday morning at 10:00 AM at Immanuel Lutheran Church in Bossier City, Louisiana. Visitation will be Sunday from 3-5 PM at Hill Crest Funeral Home in Haughton, Louisiana. The family requests that in lieu of flowers, donations be made to St. Jude Children's Research Hospital.

Prayers Needed

My mother-in-law lost her battle with cancer today.  We will be traveling to Louisiana tomorrow.  Please pray for travel mercies and a hedge of peace for Jim and his brothers and our families.

Update on Carson

Carson is out of surgery and doing fine.  Ginger said that his shunt was completely blocked but they've fixed it now and hopefully everything will go back to normal.  Thank you all for your prayers!

Prayers Needed

My nephew Carson is having surgery tomorrow at St. Jude's.  The neurosurgeon thinks his shunt is malfunctioning so they are going to go in in the morning to fix it.  Hopefully it will be very straightforward and the doctors will be in and out and life will be good again.  If you would like to read Carson's full story  click here and scroll to the bottom. 

Isn't he a cutie?  And he is such a trooper.  And if you could, please send up a prayer or two on his behalf.  His surgery is tomorrow at 9:30 AM CST.
