Cherish Every Moment
Monday was a devastating day for the people of Pike County. Three precious lives were cut short in an instant, two of which I knew. I was on my way home from Dothan Monday Night at about 8pm when we came up on traffic stopped and a sign that said accident ahead. We could tell it was bad because the traffic was backed up so far. We were at the top of one hill, and all you could see on the top of the next one was blue lights. We turned around to take a detour, and I called my sister-in-law to see if she had heard anything about the wreck. She had. She told me it was Brittany Pugh and her baby, Shep. She told me Brittany, who was only 24,didn't make it. Shep, who was 13 months, had been airlifted to Children's Hospital in Birmingham where he later passed. At that very instant my heart got so heavy, and all I could do was pray.
I prayed then, and I am still praying now. I am praying for all family and friends of Brittany and Shep, but especially for the husband and father,Clint Pugh, that was left behind. I cannot imagine what the family is going through. I didn't know Brittany very well. I had several college classes with her, and I know she was so sweet. She was such a wonderful woman who loved her husband and child dearly. She always had a smile on her face. Knowing all of this, I know she and her precious son will be missed dearly. I know when we see a tragedy such as this happen, it makes you want to ask God why?
I know we aren't supposed to question God, but it is really hard not to. All we can do is pray, remember that all things happen for a reason, and remember that we are not promised tomorrow. With that said , remember to cherish every moment you have. I know since this has happened all I want to do is hold my son and my husband close. I want to cherish every second I have with them.
I know all of this is fresh on everyone's mind right now, and lots of people are cherishing each moment and praying. But in the days to come they will soon forget. I pray that no one fogets,. I know I will not. I will pray for Clint and his family today and especially in the days ahead. I pray that God will wrap his loving arms around this family and comfort them in such a way that only He can.
RIP Brittany Shepard Pugh and Shep Allen Pugh
