Came home to very sad news!

Just got back from camping and kayaking on Friday evening. On Saturday I found out some horrible news. Some of you may have seen that a soldier from Paw Paw was killed on August 20th. Well, this soldier's parents are friends of ours and I am requesting that you keep the family in your prayers. The soldier's name is Gabriel DeRoo, his mom and dad are Laura and David. He has a new bride, Hannah (20 months married) and an 8 month old son Gabriel, Jr. Gabriel has 4 sisters, also. If you haven't heard the story, please go to watch this clip from channel 8: http://woodtv.triton.net/video.woodtv.com/index.php?video_id=4095 Thanks a lot, Pam Rhodes
