I am so sorry for your friends and can only imagine how stunned and sad they are. I will pray an extra decade of the Rosary tonight especially for John and Ellen. The decade I will pray for them will be from the Sorrowful mysteries,Carrying the Cross. Mary,who watched her son carry His cross will know how to pray that God help them through these awful times.
I will also pray that the angels take him to paradise and that perpetual light shine upon Donald.
