Accident

We had to go to Missouri this week because my brother-in-law was killed in an accident a couple of days ago. He was 35 ft in the air cutting down a limb on a tree and fell to the ground when the saw kicked and knocked him off. It has been an awful shock to the whole family and it still has not seemed like it is real yet.
I feel soooooo bad for my sister in law. I keep thinking about if it would've been me and how horrible it would be. She is doing better today but my heart goes out to her. They have 8 grown kids between the two of them,and am glad that they are all coming. One of their daughter's is stuck b/c of a bad snowstorm and will be able to come either today or tomorrow. Since the storm the visitation will not be until Friday.
Please keep the family in your prayers.
