Sue: We were travelling South on 77 when we came upon this accident. We were headed to a wedding in Ashland Ky. It was so disturbing to us when we had asked a truck driver how we could detour around the traffic to make it to Ashland. He told us what had happened. We were so moves with compassion we felt so much sorry for the families facing such a horrible thing. All night I had the young daughter of the one family on my mind that all through the night I prayed for her strength. We don't know why such things of devastation happens to families. But God only knows he needed to call them home. Please know my family is praying for all the loved ones that are suffering today. 9 years ago > REPLY
