Donnie and Susan


My sister Debbie has been best friends with Susan her whole life. A few days ago Susan and her husband Donnie were in a car accident. They were coming home from an appointment at Vanderbilt (Susan recently had foot surgery), they stopped and had a nice dinner together, then on the way home, about a mile from their house, they hit ice and were slammed into a tree. Susan wasn't injured but Donnie was critically injured. Yesterday, he had a brain hemorrhage and died.

Susan and Donnie were very much in love and so happy together.

Please pray for Susan and for Donnie's family. This is a very hard time for them. Please pray for the people who received Donnie's organs, may they now be well.

It really gave me a reality check. We can be here one minute and gone the next. Each day is a gift. I want to use everyday to show love to others.

Also, please pray for my sister and her husband, Chuck. Chuck has been asked to do the funeral and it is going to be hard for him.

Praise God for the promise of being reunited with our loved ones!
