He came home from college for several Christamses with Jack and they worked together--He brought us so much joy and laughter whenever he visited with Jack ..I don't think you all realize how much the Lord used you both to not only bring Jack to the Lord, but then you even introduced him to his future wife, our lovely Cindy....I love you both and though haven't seen you for years I want you to know we are holding you, Dustin, and your precious children in our prayers daily..Our whole family and our church family is praying for you all.

I have been praying more these past few days since I found out than I have in a long time. I have my church and my grandmother's church praying for you and the kids and of course Dustin. As I was praying I was reminded over and over that God works miracles. The more I prayed for you, the more that I felt peace b/c God is watching over you! Dustin has been on my mind so much lately! I had forgotten about the weekend at L.U. when he taught me how to drive a 5 speed..haha. Well, he handed me his keys and told me to practice but not bring his car back tore up :):) Leigh--I love and miss y'all so much! If you need anything, please call. I can be there w/in one day. Love always, Tisha My Dearest Friend–

My heart is so sad that your family is having to go through this difficult time. You and Dustin are an inspiration to Weyman and me. When I think back to when you were first married, I remember Dustin asking so many questions about life and who God really is. What I love most about Dustin is that he went to great extremes and sacrifice to find his answers, and God has blessed him for it. What I love about you the most is that you went with him....willingly. Dustin is wise beyond his years, with a humble and sincere heart. You are the role model for every wife. Your sweet spirit radiates the humility and joy of Christ. You have given your life as an offering to the Lord, and I can only imagine the lives impacted for eternity through your family. My prayer for you is that Christ will reveal more of himself to you as you travel this dark road. I am praying believing God for a miracle for Dustin, and for God's grace and mercy to be with you all. love Sandi 3283 Farrington Wood Place Birmingham, AL, 35243 205-243-3517 I love you and will be praying for you, Dear Leigh Anne,

We pray for you daily and also when we think of you throughout the day (which is often). We pray that the loyal love of our God who calls into existence things which do not exist, may comfort and encourage you in the days ahead. May the GOd of all comfort comfort you and your precious children throughout this healing process. Much more is in our hearts, as we remain, faithful to you and yours in prayer, Michele and J. D.

Last Sunday we had a guest preacher, Bradley Barnes who is with RUF at Harvard Univ. in Cambridge, MA. He began the sermon by telling us about the plight of your dear family since Nov. 8th and then he prayed beautifully and compassionately for Dustin and your shole family. Bradley also asked us to lift you all up before our Lord, Jesus Christ, today and in the coming weeks. Last night at our regular bible study meeting we related your story to our group and we prayed for you. The irony of this is that our host/leader is an avid cyclist (even rode cross country a couple of years ago) and he was especially interested in this story because he had a terrible bike accident a couple of years ago which almost killed him. George was riding near his home and his bicycle went over something in the road and the bike flipped, broke in half and threw him over the handlebars onto the road. Fortunately he was wearing a helmut and didn't sustain any significant head trauma, but the vertebrae in his neck had great damage. But for the grace of God, his neck wasn't broken, but it was in terrible shape. He went through months of therapy and had to wear a collar for almost a year. The healing was a VERY SLOW process. George really empathized with Dustin and I'm sure he will be lifting him up in his daily prayers. Keep looking up, Leign Ann, and know that you all are loved and prayed for regularly. God bless.
