26. Yes I have!

My nephew killed his wife and then his self. He was stepdad to her three girls all less than 13. Their dad’s families raised the girls after that. He was addicted to meth, she was an alcoholic. He had lost his job that day. He told the girls to turn up their stereos and don’t get out of their room. I preached his funeral. It was the hardest thing I ever did.
