Dear Friends,
This week I was at a funeral for a young man. He was to be married today.
At the bachelor party every safe guard was taken with designated drivers.
This young man was taken home and put to bed. His father went to drive more
partiers. The young man got up took a car in the drive and drove straight
into the lake where he was found the next morning. My co-worker the bride
to be is devastated. So I am asking for a prayer in any religion for
Jennifer. Thanks.

friend that had only been married just 16 months and died of cancer. Her
husband/widower is also under a lot of stress at this time.
