One Week...

It's been one week exactly since we learned of the passing of one of our town's own, Constable Vu Pham.

I won't recount the details of this tragic event, because I'm sure you've heard them all many times. And for those of us who knew him, reliving it is not something I personally like to do.


What I will tell you briefly, is that Vu was a fabulous person. A beautiful man of God who lived out his faith everyday, in his personal life and his profession.


Though I am extremely saddened by his loss, and I ache for his wife Heather and their 3 beautiful little boys, I am beginning to be excited that one day, I will have the chance to see him again. I wish I'd gotten to know Vu better while he was with us, but knowing that I will have eternity to make up for it does ease the sting a little.


I ask you to continue to pray for the Phams, their extended family and friends, for our town, and for the police force.


Also, if you'd like, please prayerfully consider a donation to Heather and the boys. You can do so through any Scotiabank, account #410120217921, or through McBurney's funeral home, "In trust for Heather Pham".


We'll miss you, Vu. But we'll see you soon! Praise God!
