I received word yesterday afternoon that Jim Campbell’s (CIS President & COO) youngest daughter, Kelly, age 17, was involved in a single-car accident in which she was the passenger. The driver was unharmed, but Kelly was killed instantly. Jim and Margie are obviously devastated, but at a high school vigil held only several hours after her death, the family took the opportunity to express lack of any blame for the driver while sharing their faith. Their strength is in their faith, but also in all of your friendships that have meant so much to them.
If you have the opportunity, please drop Jim and Margie a note or email. Please keep Jim, Margie, Brittany and Katie in your prayers
We will keep you posted on their arrangements.
Chuck Elyea, CEO
