Six months ago, I attended my sister’s wedding. It was a joyful occasion. My sister’s life hasn’t been an easy one, and I know she’d often thought she’d never find romantic love.
Today, I will attend her husband’s funeral.
He was killed in a terrible car crash yesterday morning, as he drove to the college where he’s been taking classes in social work. We were told by the social worker at the hospital that the 22-year-old woman who hit him (who was not injured seriously) had been fixing a bagel in her car, and had crossed over onto the wrong side of the road and hit him head-on. He sustained massive head injuries, and passed away yesterday afternoon.
If you’re the kind of person who prays, please pray for my sister, to help her through this incomprehensible loss.
