To answer your insensitive question, no my husband didnt know this man. He walks a mail route everyday. He was exiting a building after delivering the mail and at the same time this man was leaving his building. My husband and I didnt even live in the same area as this man. He has already been in court and admitted to quite a few people that he was high and didnt know what he was doing. As for how long I have been a member here, I didnt even know this site existed until my father, who has been a member for some time, told me about it. I could care less about anyone ever donating money to me and my daughter. My goal is to warn people about how you could be just an ordinary person on the street and senseless tragedy could hit at any moment. Dont condemn me unless you have walked a mile in my shoes.

Try to ignore ArneFufkin. We all know it's a good idea to be on the lookout for cons on the Internet, but this story is just too easy too check out BEFORE posting a hurtful accusation. ArneFufkin is to lazy to do a one minute search before posting a comment that is flat out uncivilized under the circumstances. MOST of us know that not all Freepers are the 24/7 type who bring their personal joys and sorrows to FR before spending time with family, attending funerals, talking to police, etc.

Oh and it looks like we won't be hearing from ArneFufkin for a while. We have some neat features on FR, one of which is the "Abuse" button, at the bottom of each post, which notifies the moderators of inappropriate posts, and another of which is that if you click on someone's screen name at the bottom of their post, you'll pull up their profile page -- that is if they still have one; clicking on ArneFufkin now brings up "No current Freeper by that name". Those moderators are quick on the uptake this morning -- nice job!

My (now deceased) uncle was a postal worker here in Tulsa for many years. He would go out of his way to help anyone anyhow he could. A kind gentle soul. Have some pictures I took of him and J. Inholfe when he was mayor here. Your husband sounds like he was a real gentleman. God Bless You and may the spirit of the Lord be with you and your family in your time of need...

Dear Savior, stretch Thy loving arms
Above the stormy sea,
Where, tossed ’mid dark and angry waves,
The mariner calls to Thee.
Upon that fierce and angry main
My poor weak bark doth ride,
O what am I ’mid such strong foes
Without Thee by my side?

O as Thou didst on Galilee
The waters calm at will,
When torrents raised by evil breath
The sinking ship did fill:
So now in my storm shaken soul
Awake with strength divine,
And whisper ‘peace’ to warring winds,
And let Thy glory shine.

Be Thou my Pilot through the mists
And storms that darkly rise,
As o’er life’s vast and dangerous sea
My frail bark lightly flies.
With Thee my soul securely rests
From evil’s blight restored;
And isles of green and fragrant seas
Bring peace and sweet reward.

I am told the song..."All Is Well With My Soul" was written over the place in the ocean where the writer's family was lost at sea. God will change all of our suffering--sorrows to peace and joy in the long run...now we tread-bail water--swim--faith with fresh wind--friends to share the pain-storms...on the distant shore we find...there will be no tears---no more tears--no sorrow!!

Keep reaching out--were all stragglers--lost at sea--lonely--survivors at hearts!

My deepest sympathies to you and your family. We are praying for you all. God bless you, and be comforted that your husband is safe from all suffering and embraced eternally in the Lord's loving arms. To the sorrowful, He is sympathy.
