So often, we push through and lose sight of people's grief and pain. There's "no excuse" for that. <br /><br />My prayers are with your family and the family of this young man. If you need anything, please let me know.

Having kids myself, both very active in sports and all around great kids. I'm reminded of an incident in a nearby city a few years ago. A 10yo boy was playing shinny (hockey) outdoors and was hit in the head with a puck. He died shortly afterwards. It hit the community very hard.<br /><br />I can't even imagine what the family is going through. We often forget the other side...how awful it must be for the kid that shot the puck...for his parents also.<br /><br />This kind of tragedy has such a ripple effect...we often don't realize the wide spread effect.<br /><br />God be with all those grieving for their loss.<br /><br />TimAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01876224740151908674noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3068729084407027179.post-13904470675512335132012-06-29T09:44:33.034-04:002012-06-29T09:44:33.034-04:00Thank you Amy...much appreciated.Thank you Amy...much appreciated.Jay Kuhns, SPHRhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05813031657500594380noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3068729084407027179.post-86423488927899829902012-06-29T09:14:26.875-04:002012-06-29T09:14:26.875-04:00The time you won your town the race
