You are the type of person that makes Americans look great. Brings to mind, Miller and his volunteers.

What a place for Beth to be in - hold your tongue so you don't hamper the investigation, yet, from what we see are 'screw ups' and 'protection' and 'lies' and 'delays'.

Beth and family need to be uplifted in prayers continually.
How they must miss the comfort of their own home, their own surroundings - yet they are stuck in a cess pool and being held prisoners of "Aruba's law".

Thanks.. you are right on target with the prayers.. to lose a child is unthinkable.. I am so impressed with Beth.. she demonstrates the word "grace"... I think we all want to hold and comfort her... not a day has gone by in the last few weeks that I have not thought about or prayed for Beth and her family.. but.. here is where I may earn big negative vote: I also pray for Joran and his family: that they will understand the power of truth and justice.. find it in themselves to stand up and become the humans that God intended.... that they embrace the fact that God is forgiving if a person honestly expresses sorry and clearly acknowledges sinful activities..

Having said that - I am also a realist, knowing full well that Joran and his family have no intention of standing on truth.. they sort of give new meaning to evil...

Thanks for your response.. still harboring the notion of helping Freepers find $$$s to take on Aruba...
