Nice commentary JB! Never to old to be surprised.

Christians must be wondering why it's always the "prayed for" good ones that are taken first and ones most despised and their hell-bent recommended stick around to irritate. Go figure!

May all those dealing with the devastating grief of this tragic and untimely loss receive God's strength and comfort.

BWC, I have an anwer to your question. I was attending a good friends funeral and posed the same question. Why a nice guy like instead of a mean cuss like me? The pastor answered, "because you're not ready." Words to live by. Peace.
