Hello, dear friends. I am posting tonight with a heavy heart. A very tragic event has touched someone I care about. My son is in a Christian rock band called Cord of 3. Tuesday afternoon, his dear friend and band mate, Brandon was shot in the head by man after being involved with him in a fender bender car accident. He fought hard to live for the past four days, but his injuries were unrecoverable. Brandon passed away at 10 am this morning. Brandon was a devoted husband to his wife Heidi and loving father of three little boys, Nolan, Evan, and Conner, ages 6, 3 and 2 weeks. My family is shaken and my son is devastated. It is still surreal to me. This kind of thing isn't supposed to happen to someone I know and care for. This sort of thing happens to strangers from far away. At least that's what we always think isn't it? But trust me when I say that your life can be impacted in a most traumatic way in the blink of an eye. One moment can change your entire life forever. So hug the ones you love tonight and tell them that you love them, because when they next walk out your door it may very well be that they will never come back home. My heart is broken for my son and for Brandon's family, especially his three sons, two of which will probably never remember him. I have not written anything on the next chapter for a while, and I'm not sure if I'm going to feel very creative for the next few days. So I'm not making any promises on the next chapter being done soon. I hope you all understand. It's getting late and I feel like I've been hit by a train, so I'm going to bed now. I will leave you with one of Cord of 3's songs and a request that if you pray, please pray for Brandon's family as they deal with unimaginable grief and sorrow.
