Tough times

My husband received some horrible news last week...one of his best friends had passed away!!! This was totally unexpected and a huge shock to us all. He was on a business trip in Oklahoma and died suddenly. Keith met Faiz in college in Toledo, Ohio and have been friends ever since. Even though they didn't see each other a whole lot after college (us living in SC and Faiz in FL), they were always able to just pick up where they left off when they got together. They did have a fun trip to Vegas about 2 years ago and Faiz came to visit us 2 months ago.

Faiz is actually the reason Keith and I met:) Faiz wanted to go out one night but Keith wasn't feeling well. Faiz convinced Keith to drag himself out to Club Sandwich (a cool dance bar in college) and we met and exchanged phone numbers that night! (something I never did before that) I've always liked Faiz, he's such a good, true friend, and would do ANYTHING for anyone. I don't think there was actually anyone who met him that didn't like him! He was also a very funny guy and we have lots of good memories:) Please say a prayer for all of his friends and family, including my husband. It's been a tough thing to go through and understand but I know we're all trying to trust God.


Here's a pic of the two of them from Faiz's trip here about 2 months ago...WE LOVE YOU AND WILL MISS YOU FAIZ!!!!!
