Say a Prayer for Kether

Hello everyone,

Although it's colder outside now than I really like it to be (I love tropical weather), and it IS the season that brings a lot of joy to all that welcome it, I was given sad news today that a dear friend of mine, Kether, was severly injured last night during a robbery in Costco's parking lot.

Kether was, for the lack of a better term considering the outcome, a brave enough person to go after the robbers after they drove up and saw her purse sitting in her shopping cart, and snatched it and started to drive off.

Kether ran after the thieves (female) and I've been told either jumped onto or in their white Ford Excursion SUV and tried to retrieve her purse. She was beaten and pushed off, or out of, the vehicle while it was traveling pretty quickly. She suffers mostly from head trauma due to the impact to the pavement.

I was told that Kether was on life support throughout the evening and most of today, but has since been taken off the support. She has been moved from critcal to stable condition, but is not out of the woods yet. The next few days will determine how well her recovery will be.

Please say a prayer for her, or at least keep her in your thoughts. I know most of you don't know her, but I feel that a lot more people wishing her well, and praying for her can only be a good thing. And while you're at it, keep her husband Kenny and their two small children, Kenna and Kyle, in your thoughts and prayers as well.

The month of December has always been a special time for me. I love the Christmas season for many reasons. This year, December has shown me that we all need to be careful out there, and to never take anyone or thing for granted. Live your life to its fullest, and live by the Golden Rule.

Thank you all for your time and your kind thoughts and prayers.

Get well soon Kether! We all love you and look forward to seeing you return home.

Randy
