Lost some good friends this past weekend in a plane crash.
« on: March 08, 2010, 08:40:32 AM »
Just thought I would share this. The husband and wife both died (presumed on impact) in an AT-6 crash just off shore in Destin, FL this past weekend. My wife used to be their sitter when we were in college and then when we stopped sitting for them we all stayed in touch. This morning they announced it was the wife as the passenger in the plane. It is a sad day here for us to know we lost two friends.

Thanks guys I appreciate it. These two people were one truly one of a kind and had the type of relationship with each other that sets an example for my wife and I to reach for each day.

One is out of college the other just started and the last one is a junior in high school. Either way these kids are going to have a tough run for a couple of years. The youngest is their daughter and she is having a really hard time so far.
