The reality of life and death has tracked my life for the last couple of years. During that time, 12 family members and friends have died. It hasn’t been easy.
I keep saying, “Enough, God!” But it hasn’t stopped.
It happened again last week. As I checked my emails late Wednesday night, I saw one from a regular listener to my radio program. She wanted me to know, in case I hadn’t heard, that Sheriff Larry Dever of Cochise County, Az., was dead. There was a single-vehicle rollover on a Forest Service dirt road south of Flagstaff.
No, I hadn’t heard.
As I read her words, I burst into angry tears.
Not again! Not him! No!
