Those of you from Arkansas have probably already heard the tragic news of local news anchor, Matt Turner's death Saturday night, but for those who have not I wanted to ask for your prayers. (You can read more about Matt's story here.) Matt and his wife Julee were OBU graduates. They were older than us, and we didn't know them well while we were in school, but I have gotten to know Julee a little since graduation as we have a lot in common: Julee is also a hairstylist, she and Matt were married the same day as me and Gary, and she has a little girl just a month older than Elliott.
When Elliott was born Julee reached out to me to see how I was doing as a new mom and told me she was praying for me. I've since asked her advice on numerous things, and she has always been willing to answer my questions and offer help in any way she can. She is such a wonderful, Godly woman, and I am completely heartbroken for her, Preslee and the rest of the Turner family. Please take time today to pray that she would feel the Lord's nearness during this difficult time. Also, I'm sure she would appreciate your encouragement if you would like to stop by her blog. mattandjuleeturner.blogspot.com
We know only our God is big enough to heal her broken heart. Thank you for your prayers.
