Sad day
Three of my papaw's kids were in this fire last night, and haven't been heard from since 11PM on Saturday. (Papaw remarried and had a 2nd family after my dad was grown - so I have five aunts and uncles that are all younger than me.) And now three of them are unaccounted for. Although I barely knew the kids (I think they were 19, 17, and 14) - my heart breaks for my papaw. I can't imagine what he's feeling right now. And I pray that they all made their peace with the Lord before it was too late.
Edit - the kids' bodies have been identified. And here's a picture of them, a cap from our local news:

It's just so tragic and has been weighing heavily on my mind all weekend. It's so important that people know how you feel about them, and that you always know the condition of your soul - because you never know when your last chance will be.
