I just heard the news about Jennifer Hudson's mother and brother being murdered and wanted to pop in here because I know George was close to her. Only prayer will help Jennifer right now. I pray for the safe return of her nephew and to give Jennifer the strength to endure what is certain to be the most devastating event in her life. God bless the entire family as they deal with the aftermath of this tragedy.

I talked to George Friday. He didn't want to talk about Jennifer, but had a lot of interesting tidbits to tell me. FYI, he sang at the private family funeral Monday. God bless him.
