Prayers for Brad Joplin, his family and friends: he gave his all for a most decent man. Unfortunately you have to read some of the mean comments in the comments section of this story.
God Bless Brad and God Bless Ben Carson.

Not everybody gets to die doing what they love doing, and/or doing what they truly believe is right.
May his family find comfort and peace at such a tough time for them.
Twenty five is so young :(

A real tragedy, prayers to the family and to Dr. Carson and the rest of his staff who are suffering tonight.

I heard it on the radio news this morning that there had been an accident involving 2 vehicles in western Iowa, three injured, airlifted to the Nebraska hospital. Ben Carson was suspending activities today and I think went to be with the hospitalized.
Later a news break where Ben said one was critically injured.
Now I read that he died and was such a young man. This is so terribly sad.
All affected by the tragedy will be in my prayers.
