4 More and then Some...

Just got word that an old co-worker of mine from my Disney days passed away due to Lymphoma.  Right after celebrating her 32nd birthday.  :(

One other old co-worker passed in an accident.

My boss's child was hit in a vehicle accident, condition unknown.

And my co-worker from the next office over is in critical condition due to a vehicle accident.  :(  He and I were poking fun at one another just the day prior... hours before the accident.  Too surreal.

To those firefighters in AZ... thank you for your service.  We've got your 6.

My condolences to all of their friends and family.  Best wishes to all.  2013, you've taken too many lives.





-- Fireman's Prayer --

When I am called to duty, God
whenever flames may rage,
Give me the strength to save some life
Whatever be its age.

Help me to embrace a little child
Before it's too late,
Or some older person
from the horror of that fate.

Enable me to be alert
And hear the weakest shout,
And quickly and efficiently
to put the fire out

I want to fill my calling
and give the best in me,
to guard my neighbor
and protect his property

And if according to Your will
I have to lose my life,
Please bless with Your protecting hand
My children and my wife
