Rest in Peace: Alan Henning

Some things have such profound impact when they happen that you remember exactly where you were when you found out. You know what I mean: JFK Assassination, George Wallace Assassination Attempt, Ronald Reagan Assassination Attempt, John Lennon murder, 9/11, etc.

Well, I remember exactly where I was when I found out that Alan Henning had died. Yes, it is sad news indeed. I heard early this morning from Suzanne Kimmel that Alan had died. Needless to say, I felt like someone had punched me in the belly. It knocked the breath right out of me, and I thought I might faint

What a great guy! In his youth he left a swath of broken hearts all across North Texas, and I know tonight that those hearts have broken again.

Farewell dear Alan. Gone but never forgotten!
