Prayers Request

Folks,

One of our security guards, here at USASOC, was recently killed by a drunk driver. David Hill, 34, was to be married to the mother of his two children tomorrow (Friday) at 7 pm.

While talking to his fiance on the phone, he was hit by a drunk driver in a Cadillac going 80 MPH. She heard the entire thing.

Now, instead of a wedding, at 7 pm, tomorrow, they are holding his funeral. It's an open funeral and the Methodist Church on Rim Rd/Cliffdale.

Please pray for his family, etc.

He was an excellent guy. I was so shocked because I was just talking to him the other night and he was teasing me about taking four swipes to get out the turnstyles. Very friendly and amiable and a wonderful guy.

RIP, David.

Rest in Peace David.

Father, We lift up this family unto you. We ask that you comfort their hearts with your Peace. Strengthen this mother & give her wisdom in dealing with her children. Surround them with family & friends that can help with material needs at this time. Also we ask that justice be brought to this situation, give the jurors wisdom to see through all the smoke & mirrors, & agree on the truth, so that justice may be swift.
In Jesus Name I pray, Amen
