I cannot even wrap my head around this tragedy. Oh my LORD! I have read this report more than a couple of times……….it makes me ill. I feel so badly for the family. Help us Lord.
I cannot even imagine the pain of Mr. Morgan’s family and friends. Another reminder that life is so very precious and it can end in a second.
We mourn at this tremendous loss of this beloved rancher and his cattle. We mourn for his family.
