One year ago today, William Thomas Darnell, Jr. was born to two of my best friends, Bill and Cheryl Darnell. He was a healthy, beautiful, joyful little boy, loved so much by his parents and big sister Avery. On March 29, Little Billy died of SIDS. This loss has been devastating to Bill and Cheryl and all who know and love them. However, God is good. In the process of healing, God has led the Darnells to begin a nonprofit organization, Little Billy's SIDS Support, to help other families who experience the tragic loss of a child due to SIDS. Their website is up and running today, and they're beginning a 149 day campaign to raise $1.49 million. Will you take a few minutes to go to littlebilly.org and read their stories? Please consider giving, too, as we approach the holiday season and you choose charities to support. And, please continue to pray for the Darnells today on Billy's birthday and in the days ahead.

Very sad. I hate that Cheryl had to experience that, but I guess this is one of those ways that God can use a bad situation for good. Billy certainly was a cutie!
