So very sad for the Gallups; to lose two children is tragic.
Please also keep in your prayers one of the best B.C. guys ever, Paul Wenger, A&S '74, a dear friend and classmate who passed away today.
In the face of a grim diagnosis of brain cancer last winter, he renewed his football season's tickets... ever the optimist!
Paul epitomized "Ever to Excel", in every way, as does his wonderful family; his son was a Presidential Scholar, class of 2004, and a daughter received a grad degree. His passing is a great loss to everyone who knew him, and to the BC community.

And, Jim Whalen, one our best ever.
As a parent of 3 kids myself (all teenagers), I cannot imagine the pain of the Gallup family.
My thoughts and payers are with them.
Thanks dixieagle. This means a lot to our family.
You're welcome, Paul. (My cover is blown, I guess...)
