This 8 Minute video Tells the Story
We made this short video in 2005 to share at churches, schools, and other events which includes two great songs by Chris Rice. The first song is Life Means So Much. The second song is My Prayer. Our family has had the privilege to share the story God gave us at over 300 events. Who would have thought that thousands of people would see the impact of this video and hear the message of hope.
This is a security video from the Walmart store they were at just 30 minutes before they were killed. The last frame of this movie shows the time of 19:08. They did not know that in just 30 minutes they would see their LORD. The management of Walmart was kind enough to give us a copy of this tape. We are very grateful as this is the very last picture of Matthew, Jacob, and Justin.
This reconstruction of the crash confirms how violent it was and how quickly they died. In just 2 seconds, and they lay in the ditch dead. That is not enough time to prepare to die.
They were ready.
Are You?
Eighteen young men and women, who carried their cousins and friends to the grave. They will never be the same knowing that life is very precious, but so very fragile.
Three very goofy boys singing in front of the Christmas tree for the rest of the family.
More evidence that they did everything together.
Three brothers together in life.
Three brothers together in death.
Jacob loved to fly. Even though he was color blind, he wanted to fly helicopters for the Marines. It was his dream.
The smile says it all.
