Not sure why this is affecting me....

But I was deeply saddened to hear of the death of James Dungy, 18-year-old son and second child of Indianapolis Colts Head Coach Tony Dungy and his wife Lauren.

It's always sad to hear of the death of a young person, especially this close to the holidays, but this really got to me, probably because I know the Dungys are a very close family and it must have been hard for them to let their son move back to Tampa, only to lose him so soon.

My thoughts and prayers are with the Dungys and their friends and family as they cope with this devastating loss and search for answers.  I pray that their strong and deeply felt faith will guide them through this difficult time.

This one got to me, too.

I cannot imagine and pray the death of a child is something I never have to personally experience.

But for the grace of God go any of us.

It's always sad when someone that young dies, add the time of year and it just compounds the grief.
