Today will be the funeral for Pfc. Jaron Holliday at 11am in Tulsa, OK. You can see a photo of this wonderful family here.
As most people could imagine, this is probably going to be a surreal day for the Hollidays. What will make it worse is that there are actual protesters expected to show up outside the church where the service will be held.
I cannot imagine what kind of warped perspective would cause people to think that there was anything right about crashing the funeral of a beloved son in order to cause a ruckus. I'm just horrified to know that people like this exist. It never amazes me what horrible things people manage to feel alright about doing.
So, please, please pray for this dear family and all of their relatives and friends that will be celebrating Jaron's life today. And maybe we could all pray for the sad souls that would do anything to hurt or discourage these dear people.
Matthew 5:44-45

We are praying, and my daughter and I are planning to be part of the American Flag Honor Guard. Thank you for letting us know about this today.

These horrific protests are the work of Fred Phelps and his "church". It is amazing to me that no one has taken violent action towards these nuts! They not only target military but also homosexuals.
