~Heart Broken~

Car after the accident
Valdosta, Georgia
December 22, 2015 8:55am CST
Today is a very sad day for my husband and I. Our friend got into a collision and passed away yesterday. Two weeks ago his wife died and yesterday he joined her in Heaven. My husband doesn't know yet because hes at work, but he will be very sad when he hears about it later today. They did have children that they left behind. Their children lost both parents 2 weeks apart. Please keep their children, family and friends in your prayers. Heaven gained another angel but the Earth lost two wonderful souls in a very short amount of time. Also, please keep the other driver in your prayers as she is in critical condition in the hospital. You never know when it will be your time or a loved ones time to leave this Earth. Don't put things off for tomorrow, make sure you let your loved ones know you love them. I talked with our friend 2 days ago...he is gone now.

@marlina It is very sad. They are teenagers and thank God they do have other family members that can take care of them. A few days before Christmas is an especially hard time.

@LovingMyBabies that is awful. How old were the kids left behind? You are right, we never know when anyone's time including own is up.

@HanVanMeegerin The children are teenagers. Sometimes we feel like life will last forever, until we lose someone close to us that we love and care about.

@sugartoes Yeah it happened so fast. =( They are still investigating the accident but it sounds like he was making a u turn and was hit as he did that. They haven't said who was at fault or anything yet. Thank you for the prayers.

This is so sad. I'm thinking about the children. They lost both parents and that has t be rough. I pray for the children, family, and friends. That's not easy to deal with. Wow! We never know what tomorrow holds and that's why we should embrace today.

@Teep11 It is especially hard for their children. I feel so bad for them. It is true-we should make every day count with our loved ones because we just never know when it will be our last day on Earth.

@AbbyGreenhill I think the only comfort anyone has is that they are together in Heaven now. I know the children do have family that will take them in.

@LovingMyBabies And they have each other. If it was just one left along it would be far worse.

@LovingMyBabies So they are still young which makes it even harder on them. I feel for you and your pain and know how much you wish you could go there. I hope you will find the time to go there soon and be with them.
