My Father's Death

On Tuesday, March 12, I recevied a phone call from my sister lettting me know that my father had been killed in an automobile accident in Miami, FL. The news was indeed a shock. Never did I anticipate my dad leaving this world due to an accident. I still cannot believe that he is gone. Dads aren't supposed to leave us you know. Death is so permanent and it leaves a hole for sure.

I had spoken to him the day before and his last words he shared with me were, "Give Danna and the kids a kiss and hug for me." His death has come as a shock, however, I feel the undergirding of the Spirit throughout these past several days. While in the midst of our sorrow, we are so grateful to God for protecting my mother. She too was in the car with my father and escaped with some moderate injuries.

Danna and I would like to thank our church family for your incredible love that you have shown to us and all the prayers that have been offered on our behalf during the loss of my father. It is incredibly comforting to have a loving church family. You are the best!


We love you!

Jay
