I'm not sure if I ever mentioned this, but a friend of me and Nick's was in a terrible car accident the week before Christmas. He was doing great around Christmas, walking, talking, etc. So, he was moved out of the ICU into a regular room. Well, the nurses check on everyone every 30 minutes. Sometime between checks he stopped breathing and no one knows for how long. Could've been 8 minutes, could've been 18. After that long with no oxygen, things aren't very hopeful. He was put back on life support, and never came back. He passed away at 3 AM, january 11th, 2005. He was only 34 years old. It's been very hard because he was such a wonderful man, and also Nick's older brother's best friend. His wife is also a good friend of ours. Anyway, we're having a benefit tomorrow to help his wife with all the costs of the funeral, cremation, and other bills like household etc. I'll be selling the tickets for beer, and just helping with other things. I'm praying that a lot of money comes in to help her out! I'm sure it will, he had a TON of friends! So, if you all could include in you prayers hope for a wonderful turnout, I'd really be grateful! Thanks, Kristl
