It's pretty easy to forgive someone who's dead. I wonder if he'd feel the same way if the killer were alive and in jail.

Two related notes: The family asked the ARMED deputy who saved the day to be a pallbearer at her funeral.

There's a petition to issue her Diploma posthumously. I don't have a problem with that.

Our only son was killed by a drunk driver that was his own age.
It was not an intentional act, just poor judgement.
We forgave him and asked the judge for leniency at his trial so that two lives were not lost by the mistake.
We live with his loss every day, but harboring hate in your heart will only make it worse.

Read Matthew 6:14 & 15 and then make your own call on what you feel a Christian needs to do.

God bless
