Tragedy in the NCCAA family

I recieved this email yesterday:

We at North Central University experienced a tragic loss over the
Thanksgiving holiday. Amanda Evans, A Freshmen member of our National Championship Cross Country team passed away suddenly from heart failure.

This has been a devastating loss to the entire community, but particularly the Athletics Department. Besides Amanda's connection to Athletics, her boyfriend is a member of the NCU baseball team and has taken the loss extremely hard as he was present at the time of her death.

Please pray for the family . . . and Danny Grass, the boyfriend left behind. Pray that North Central can minister to the family and friends and as well as deal with their own loss.

Sincerely,
Greg Hayton
North Central University
Director of Athletics

Please pray for the family of this young lady and her school. Man knows not his time. . .

Hey, should the title be NCAA rather than NCCAA? Anyway, I will be praying for this family.

No, this is North Central University in Minneapolis, not North Central College in Naperville, IL
