Please keep my classmates & their families close in your prayers. We went to the same HS together. While I was not friend's with either of these boys, the one guy Joe, his mom was my English teacher.

Who, coincidently I saw a few weeks ago. My Pastor had died, and she came to the memorial service --- and even though we didn't talk then, I saw her as she and my Pastor Gayle were in a quilting club together. Mrs. Sendzik must be facing a tough time right now with her son Joe being taken so young.

Greg was my classmate and Joe was a year younger.

I am 29 yrs old so you can guess their age group.

Here is the story frm yesterday---prior to them identifying the men.

Thank you all.
 
I'm so sorry Vanessa. That article is so depressing. I pray they'll have answers soon for their families. It's so disheartening when someone is taken so young.

The comments on there are awful as well. Geez!!

This article just releases their names. http://www.app.com/apps/pbcs.dll/article?AID=/20080515/NEWS/80515055

There is speculation that they were at a bar where there were 25 cent beers. I do not like to jump to conclusions, but I am interested to know. They are not releasing that info yet.
 
So sorry. I'll pray for them and their family.
