Today on my way to work I turned off my usual Christian podcast when I noticed the emergency vehicles arriving just over the bridge at 7 and 50. I felt this overwhelming need to pray and I did just that. I prayed for everyone there including my daughter who was on her way home. I was heartbroken to later learn the accident I was paying over was my friend Rachel Keltner Stone. She was a wonderful woman and loved by so many. I continue to pray for Scott and the children and for all those involved today. I pray that they may find peace and I pray God uses your tragic passing for something good my friend. 🙏
