Angie's Journey

My assistant Angie and I have worked together for 15 years.  She's been a blessing to everyone here at Second.  At age 11 Angie was orphaned, her parents dying within a year of each other.  Angie was taken in by an older sister and brother-in-law who were expecting a baby in Key West FL.

This brother-in-law died on Tuesday and his military memorial service will be in Richmond VA one week from today.  Angie and her husband Ron will drive to and from the service.  Angie will not fly (odd because her son is a pilot).  She won't fly because when she was about 8 a small planed crashed in her neighborhood.  Angie and her dad were the first ones on the scene.  Long story short, there were body parts everywhere.  Angie never recovered.

Pray for Angie and Ron as they drive to and from Richmond.  We rejoice in a brother-in-law who was willing to take in his wife's sister.  Angie says she never felt like an orphan.  Amen.
