Cory Lidle: 'In A Tragedy, Hope'

My blogging friend, Tim Ellsworth, has written an excellent article on the death and life (inverted order intended) of New York Yankees pitcher Cory Lidle who died yesterday in a plane crash. Here is an excerpt:
"New York Yankees pitcher Cory Lidle died in a plane crash, when the plane he was flying slammed into a Manhattan high-rise apartment building. He leaves behind a wife and a 6-year-old son.

And we’re all reminded of how fragile life is and how quickly it can be gone.

Over the days ahead, the Lidle family will grieve much, and rightfully so. His wife Melanie has lost a husband and friend. His 6-year-old son Christopher has lost a dad. They will never be the same, and will live with a gaping void that cannot be filled.

They desperately need our prayers.

But thankfully, the Lidles’ grieving will not be as those who have no hope..."

Thanks for the compliment, David. It's not one of those articles I was happy to write. So sad.
