John P. Stout ’08 passed away this past week.  John is the son of Tom (Harry) Stout ’69 and brother of Mark ’04.  As you can imagine, the entire Wabash community mourns with Tom and Mark, just as we are doing with the death of Brent Graber ’01.  These two young men passed away long before their time and as a result of similar injuries.<\/p>\n

Brent and John had bright futures, no doubt.  Both were talented and energetic young men.  We’re left scratching our heads and asking "Why?".<\/p>\n

These untimely deaths directly conflict with a basic law of nature according to the Grunge – your children are supposed to mourn your passing, not vice versa.  When things like this happen, there simply aren’t any words\/thoughts\/expressions that make it easier for a Mom and Dad to handle this. Trust me, there aren’t.<\/p>\n

So, please keep Tom Stout and Brent parents in your prayers.  <\/p>\n
