Our company arrived Friday just after 2 p.m. I'm going to work today to get some rest. I know they are here at least thru Saturday. I haven't disappeared.

Hello INGO friends. I can’t say good morning because it is a terrible morning quite probably the worst morning of my life. We were awakened at 2:30 AM by St. Joseph Co. police at the door. They came to inform us our youngest son (48) had been killed in an auto accident on the 20 bypass coming home from Chicago. He ran off the road and hit a parked semi. I am assuming he fell asleep. Needless to say no sleep for us since then. I am in shock I think. My wife is taking this very hard. She is still curled up lying in bed crying off and on. I just couldn’t lay there anymore. Had to get up. Nothing to do, no friends up yet for a shoulder to cry on. So here I am pouring my heart out to my INGO brothers nd sisters. We can use support, prayers, and good thoughts. The days ahead are going to be very tuff.

My God HS. I am so sorry for your loss.

Hs, I am very sorry. I know there is nothing anyone can say or do to help.
I know what my parents went through when my sister was killed.
I will pray for you.

Oh HS....that is horrible news. I am in tears and will be praying for you and your wife as you try to get thru this day and those to come. I am so very sorry to hear this.

My daughter's friend had her 15 year old son airlifted to Memorial yesterday with a head injury from an auto accident. We are still waiting for updates on his condition.

I cannot imagine waking up to that....always a parent's worst nightmare. Prayers will be ongoing for your family.
