Thank you all for your kind words and prayers. I’ll make sure he sees them.
Thank you, Chris, for posting this. Thank you, Everyone, for your prayers! Cameron’s church family at Living Word Family Church, Raleigh, NC, is also on their knees and are very supportive of him. She was a beautiful, sweet girl with a precious, precious heart and will be terribly missed. Please pray also for Dr. Cook, the man responsible for this and his family as well! It would be safe to say that they need the Lord to move in their lives as well.
Horrible news. I am praying for your brother, her family, and the person who caused the wreck. I will also be sure to appreciate every breath that God gives me and my family and friends.
Prayers indeed, for your brother and all her friends and family.
