In Memory of Daniel B. Haynes

I'm so saddened to hear of the passing of Daniel Haynes, a very close friend of a friend of mine. (Well, Sara is the twin of one of my best friends, Abby, but such is the family of Christ, right?) Sara had sent out several emails over the past several months about Daniel's fight with cancer alongside his brand-new bride, Priscilla. Daniel went home to be with the Lord last night, and I know that, while his loved ones have every assurance that he is in the arms of his Savior right now, their hearts are aching.

I've asked Sara to speak with Priscilla at a more appropriate time for permission to post Sara's emails here, as they were incredibly moving and beautifully written, and a powerful testimony to faith and love. If they give the okay, I'll share what Sara has written in her requests for prayers for this amazing young couple.

Here is part of his obituary as published at http://www.vandermay.com/; would that we all merit this kind of legacy. Prayers for his young wife, his family, and his dear friends are certainly cherished.
