Sarah

Letter to Mr. Shelton Hull---Folio Magazine
Jacksonville Florida---March / April 2006

Mr. Shelton Hull:

I picked up the latest Folio a few evenings ago and was moved to tears (more than once) by your column. You were right, no other article was worth reading.

The story of Sarah and the tragedy which unfolded is hard to understand. I do not know you and unfortunately never had the pleasure of meeting your “Sunshine” Sarah. God works in mysterious ways we often struggle to understand.

Please sir, use this unfortunate twist of fate to strengthen yourself and you will enhance all those you have the fortunate task of writing to. You have a wonderful outlet as a column writer for Folio. Use it and this senseless crime to hopefully make the world a better place in her honor.

God bless you as He blessed Sarah thru her life. She is that second shadow you see of yourself when the light is just right. She is that gust of wind on an otherwise calm day.

Humble prayers and peace in all you do. Thank you for your column; I just wish the murder of Sarah would have not caused its writing.

A friend in Christ:
