Alyssa and Tucker

We had a tragic loss in John’s family this past Sunday. John’s first cousin, Alyssa, and her 10 month old baby, Tucker, were killed by a drunk driver on her way to work in the morning. We drove down yesterday morning for the visitation. The funeral was one of the saddest I have ever attended. It is hard to understand how something this horrific can happen to two beautiful and innocent people. We were just sick to our stomachs driving back to McKinney. Alyssa left behind a husband and two young boys who will only have a memory of their mother and baby brother. I don’t know how a family moves on from this. It is definitely a situation that reminds you to take nothing and no one for granted.
