Please pray for the soul of Michael Clawson. He died on Monday in a helicopter crash.

Our family met the Clawsons when we first moved to Arizona 8 years ago. They were a very bright light to us, fun and lively. They moved to Indiana shortly after but we hold fond memories of their generous family and our hearts break with theirs in this tragic loss.

Friends, please lift this Catholic homeschooling family up in prayer in their time of need.

Eternal rest grant unto Michael Clawson O Lord and let perpetual light shine upon him.

Mother Mary, please comfort those who love and will miss Michael, especially is wife and children.

Amen.

Love,

Praying for the repose of Michael's soul and for his grieving family. This intention is so close to my heart, as my son, who is the hsing dad of three small ones, is currently in Afghanistan.

Praying here for this family.   As the mother of two soldiers, this hits very close to home.

So very sad. Praying for the family as they mourn this terrible loss. Prayers for you too, Angie - as it is so painful for all those who lose a friend.

May he rest in peace.
