queen -- I'm sorry! I didn't mean to worry anyone! We went to McDonalds for breakfast after my last comment, so we didn't get to bed 'til after 6:30 a.m. and haven't been up all that long. My e-mail was flooded with people checking on us so I was replying to all of that first. We're ok. A little shell-shocked, but ok. We're going to get cleaned up and head out in a bit for dinner to get away from all this for awhile.

My prayers are with the victim's family though. We learned he had children and grandchildren. What a horrible thing for that family just before Father's Day -- especially losing their mother/grandmother a year ago. :-(

So far I haven't been able to find anything about this on the news though...the evening news should start in a bit...

Gosh Robyn...I'm so glad you and Todd are ok and I pray for peace, not only for the two of you, but for his family as well.

It's always freaky to hear about things like this happening in areas that are "nice" areas. Not long after we moved here someone got murdered in the main street in the early hours of the morning, and then another a couple of months later. Luckily someone was recently charged for the both murders, but it's still awful to think it can happen so close to home. Glad you're all okay.

I wish I could say that if it was murder then they'll definitely get someone, but I can't. Someone I knew from middle school was murdered a couple of years ago in broad daylight, with plenty of witnesses. Yet the guy everyone pinned as doing it got off because he claimed self-defence (even though all evidence pointed to the contrary). :( All I can really hope in this case is that there are people who are able to look after the children and grandchildren, which is the most important thing - and that if it was murder, that person will have to live with the guilt of the hurt s/he caused to that man's family. In certain ways, that's probably far worse.

Hey, congrats on your anniversary. Sorry that it got spoilt the way it sounds like it did. :-( Make the best of it anyway, if you can.

I'm glad you're ok. I feel bad for the neighbors, though. :( *hugs*

Robyn, sounds as if you have plenty of prayers for you and Todd, and your neighbor's family. You have great friends on here. As you and I both know from plenty of experience, prayer changes things. Thank you for calling me Friday nite and then calling me back and letting me know how things went.
Now, if I could get personal and request prayers for your step-dad, Gary. His doctor's appt. is tomorrow and we're very scared. Thanks everyone.
