I believe most of you have now heard about Gerry Shoaf's brother dying in a tragic auto accident last week. Joel Shoaf was minding his own business driving down Apopka Vineland road when a lady coming in the opposite direction abruptly crossed the centerline and hit Joel head on. Both drivers had their seatbelts on. Both drivers lost their lives.

I have absolutely no idea why this lady crossed the centerline so quickly, but my gut tells me texting was involved, or it had to do with her phone. 

Please, please, please stop texting and looking at your phone while you are driving. And please tell your kids! Whatever the message is can wait. Whatever the message is cannot be worth your life. 

Joel was 59 years old. He had a wife and 3 kids. What a senseless way to leave this earth. 

May God bless Joel's soul as he rest in peace.
