photo from Paul's blogMy husband and I follow closely the story and music of Paul Cardall as he has inspired us so many times. This past week there have been some poignant and beautiful posts about adversity and forgiveness. Paul lost his brother Brian a young and brilliant scientist and father in a trajic accident. Here are his words on the news:
"I have struggled my whole life with a severe heart defect while Brian experienced some mental illness. Rarely did Brian have episodes which triggered this horrific tragedy. The public should know that Brian is a wonderful son, loyal brother, loving father, and faithful husband who loved being with people. He was extremely intelligent and full of personality. He wanted to make a difference in this world. He was working on his Ph.D. in molecular ecology at Northern Arizona University. He loved being in the outdoors with his daughter Ava and beautiful wife Anna. Brian was a great friend. He brought so much joy to our family and had the biggest heart in the world. He was a good man striving to learn how to be a better man. It was an honor to know him in this life and call him brother. Our family will miss Brian but we are comforted by our faith in a loving Heavenly Father whose grace is sufficient enough. Here is to our brother Brian. God speed my friend. You are free to exercise the spiritual depths of your heart. We love you!"
May the Cardall family find peace in the Savior and may Paul get a heart very soon. Pray for them!
