ToraGirl 5,498 Posted May 26, 2019 Share Posted May 26, 2019 Grieving! I went as part of a group date to the Valley High School senior prom with Rod and Paula, then dating, 1984. Have connected with him since and laughed about that night. Who would have ever dreamed that he would become the Voice of Auburn? She was so quiet and sweet. Just caught the news and am crushed. Stunned. Prayers rising and will continue. May an outpouring of love and support flood this family and all involved. Only prayer in times like these...nothing else. Until the Lord lays specific ways to help on our hearts...Revelation 21:4. (These are the Rod and Paula I remember.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dual-Threat Rigby 8,668 Posted May 26, 2019 Share Posted May 26, 2019 Wish the best for Rod. I’m left wondering what could’ve distracted the Jeep that rear ended his vehicle....don’t think we’ll know the full details any time soon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My Lord, the rate of speed that must have been to cause all this. I've seen many speculations on the Auburn forum-sphere and I wish they wouldn't run rampant but it's understandable when everyone is searching for any nibble of news...in the day and age we live in, seeing the age of the third person involved made my stomach sink further, hoping there's an explanation that doesn't involve human distraction or error. Whatever the cause, there are two families who should be whole tonight and aren't. Praying for everyone involved. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
