update on prayer request

[mavislb]

A couple of weeks ago I asked for prayer on the prayer forum for a tragic accident that happened in our county. A young 13 yr old girl was pronounced dead at the scene and her mother died the next week. A car stolen in Joplin, MO was being pursued by a county deputy and struck the back of the other car. At times his speed was over 120 mph.

As an update, the mother and daughter were on their way home from VBS at the Friends (Quaker) church they attended. They were both said to be very loving, caring people. The mother was a school teacher. So far over 4 people have been helped by donations from the mother's body and more are expected; and over 50 have received help from the daughter's body.

The driver (22 years old) of the stolen car (stolen from his "girlfriend" when she gave him the keys to listen to the radio but told him not to drive because he was too drunk) was arrested in the hospital on charges of stealing the car (Missouri) and released on $20,000. bail. He later married the girl he "stole" the car from. He also has a warrent in Oklahoma for failure to appear. No charges have as yet been filed in Kansas.

I know prayers are still appreciated for the family. This was an only child. The husband's father suffered a heart attack when he heard the news his daughter-in-law had died. A scholarship fund has been set up at their church as a memorial.
