SoldierDad just received a call that his father was killed in a motorcycle accident today. The accident happened near Tulare, CA. He was on his way to a rally in Tulare and for unknown reasons went off the road. No other vehicles were apparently involved. He died of head injuries at the hospital after failed attempts to revive him. As some of you may know, SoldierDad was organizing a homecoming celebration for his son, PFC Robert, who is to arrive home on leave from Iraq on Monday. Please pray for SoldierDad and his family as they mourn this beloved family...
