We've spent the last 6 days in Arizona, and it's been a long hard week. Last Sunday, Dan's younger brother Matt was killed in a car accident. We flew out as soon as we could the next day. His funeral was on Saturday, and so the time prior to that was spent making arrangements and spending with family.
Words can't describe the pain I feel for Matt's family. He has two little boys and one on the way, due in just a few weeks. This news link is an interview with Matt's wife Brenda. She's been amazingly strong during this time. http://www.azfamily.com/news/local/stories/Gilbert-local-news-091108-wife-fatal-wreck-talks.695cffbd.html
If you're interested in assisting, we have some of Matt's CDs available for sale. ($10) He was an accomplished pianist and his music is beautiful. All of the money will be given directly to his family. Please contact me if you are interested.

Danell...this just gave me the chills. I saw it on the news...and then saw the interview with his wife. Please know that your family is in our prayers.
We're so sorry. You and your family are in our prayers.
Hi there. I popped over from Raina's site. My aunt is neighbors with Brenda's parents in OK. I just wanted to say how sorry I am for the loss you are all experiencing. That is a pain I can't even imagine.
Oh Danell! I had no idea. I am so sorry. What a tragic situation for his family. That unborn baby not knowing his dad is even more heartbreaking. I'll be praying for all of you.
I'd like to get a CD.
You are in our prayers also. I've very sorry!
We are so sorry to hear about the tragic situation. We would love to buy a CD and will also be leaving money in the account. Dave remembers Matt coming over to their house quite a bit. Please email us at daveandbriste@yahoo.com with info on how to purchase a CD. Your family is in our prayers.
Danell, I am so sorry. I saw the news clip. I can't imagine what Brenda must be going through. The music was beautiful. I would enjoy a CD.
Hey Danelle! I read about this also on my friends blog. I guess he was in her ward. I would love to buy a CD and help the family out. Please let me know how... thanks! Email me @ bambiejojo@hotmail.com
Hi, I'm the friend Brandi mentioned (small world!). We met briefly when two other girls and I brought dinner on the night of the visitation. I just wanted to tell you that I'm so sorry for your loss. I hope you have all felt the many prayers being offered in your behalf. Our ward is really trying to pull together for Brenda and the boys, but if you know of anything else they may need (she may not ask) please let me know.
Hey Danell, it's Miken. Found you from Lacy's blog. Sorry to hear about that sad loss. I would love a CD. My piano students would love to listen to him. Your family is beautiful. We are in TX with number 2 on the way. www.thehappyhardings.blogspot.com Tell your folks hi for me!
Dan and Danell. We are so terrible sorry to hear this news. I know the family sorrow can be so far reaching. We are so sorry. We too would like to get a CD. Please let us know how when you have a moment.
Danell, I am so sorry to hear about your brother in law. That is heartbreaking news. I can't imagine how hard that must be to go thru for your family. Know my thoughts and prayers are with you.
My mom told me the news about a week ago. I'm so sorry to hear it. It can't be fun to go through, and is likely a catalyst for many thoughts and prayers on your part and the part of others. I hope everyone is hanging in there with strong testimonies and faith. There is a bright future ahead for your family.
My heart goes out to you and your husband with the loss of your brother in law. Our prayers will be with you & your family.
