Life is Precious- NEW UPDATES & Info about helping the family.

[brazoseagle]

I lost my best friend today when he was killed snow skiing while in Colorado. He was a friend, a partner in crime, a father of two, a husband, a coach, a high school principal, a son, a brother and a Godly man who was loved by everyone and known throughout the entire community. He was 36 years old leaving behind a wife and 2 small children. I've been friends with him for 20 years and we were together no less than 2 nights a week EVERY single week. My heart is heavy. RIP Craig! Raise your smoke high to the heavens tonight boys.

UPDATE: 03/25/2012

Well, not sure why God has the timing He does sometimes, how it continues to not make any sense :

My wife and I found out tonight that my friends wife is pregnant with their 3rd child, a child who will never know his/her father. This news only a week after we buried him. I didn't think my emotional system could handle any more, yet to be shocked with this news and feeling utterly broken again.

UPDATE: 03/26/2012

Several members have asked if there was anything they can do financially. The family, unfortunately, was not left in a prime financial position, and with two kids and one new one on the way, they need help. A memorial fund has been set up for the benefit of the kids, PM me if anyone is interested in helping in any way.
