Tragic Accident


Hello humans,

I think that I may be growing a heart like you people have. Even my hollow plastic body feels the pain that permeates the family today. My hollow plastic head wonders why something like this would happen. If you humans don't have answers, I don't know where to get them. What do you humans do when these horrible, unexplainable things happen? How do you keep on going after something like this?

We had a terrible thing happen in Missy Linda's family. Missy Sharon had a terrible accident while riding her bicycle in Norman, OK, on Tuesday. Missy Linda's brother and Missy Sharon, his wife, rode their bikes every morning for exercise. They rode the same eight mile route almost every day for over fifteen years. This day things turned tragic in a way no one could have ever imagined. Missy Sharon turned too sharply and then tumbled from her bike, hitting the back of her head on the pavement. We are so sorry to report that she died from her overwhelming injury.

It has been a very hard year for Missy Linda's family. A year ago this month, Missy Linda's mother died. Then, two days before Christmas, her brother died. Now this! It seems like a lot for one family.

Missy Barb, Missy Linda and I will take our trip to San Antonio sometime later.

Please keep the family in your thoughts and prayers, ok?
