Dan


The hardest thing to cope with is death, sometimes it comes slowly and you prepare for it, and sometimes it comes when you least except it. either way its hard to understand the reasons. When i first came to Olivet i had a few girl friends that i could always turn too no matter what Brooke Soulia was one of those girls. Dan walker has been her boyfriend for the past couple years and so Mike and I have gotten to know both of them better. Both of these people are awesome people who love the Lord. Tuesday night in his sleep Dan passed away. He was working at an adventure camp in Colorado at the time. He went to Olivet and played football and just graduated this last may. Brooke has been working in India this summer on a missions trip and is flying back for the funeral on Saturday. They arent sure yet the cause of death, They will know by the end of the day. Dan was just 22 years old. I'm still a little in shock at the whole situation but we know he's in heaven right now praising the Lord. Please be in prayer for the Walker family along with Brooke as this is going to be a hard couple of days. God has a reason for everything so just pray that God's Glory be seen in his death. He was a really awesome guy and we are blessed to have gotten to know him.
