    My daughter Olivia’s best friend is still missing and the outlook is very grim.

    Stephanie And her boyfriend were hiking at Rainbow Falls in MI where Stephanie lost her footing and fell in the river. She went over the falls and the dive teams still have not found her.

    Olivia is a wreck since she got Stephanie into camping and hiking up there. Olivia is camping in Colorado and waiting to hear more news. We are just sick.

    Thanks all. I realize many are not familiar with Rainbow Falls. It’s just a short distance to Lake Superior she could easily have been swept down to the lake bawling

    Good God Randy….. I’ve been fishing Rainbow Falls ever since I was a kid with my dad. Every September we would fish the Kings as they were spawning. The Black River IS NOT JOKE!!!!! Prayers for sure have been sent!!

    Randy, I’ll pray for your daughter, the boyfriend and the girl’s family.

    Here’s a video that I shared with a family member yesterday that has lost a son in a car wreck. They were questioning why do bad things happen to good people. The name of the video is “Why Is There So Much Suffering in the World?” You’ll have to scroll down just a bit to get to the file link.

    Here’s a list of similar videos that use the bible to explain the bible. There may be some other descriptions that resonate with them.

    The accident it’s self is tragic. That your daughter should or does feel any guilt is a tough deal also. Hard for kids to understand tragic events at their age.

    Give your daughter a hug from her IDO family.

    Just saw this, we’ll pray for all those affected! Hopefully your daughter can find some understanding that none of it was/is her fault.
