death

A friend died this weekend. He grew up with my children. His family moved away a few years ago, but we still kept in contact. He was driving, his girlfriend was with him, and they were rammed by a drunk driver. Their car exploded, they both died. He was 19, she was 16. The drunk is in the hospital. Life is so unpredictable. My heart is just breaking for the families. I know my friend has moved on to the next life. We're all here for a short time. Some of us are here for a really short time. None of us know when it will be over. Even if my friend is with God now, it is still an horrid trial for his family. What do you say to a woman who has her son killed in such an awful way? The drunk is being charged with two counts of murder.
