Because Baptist missionary kids always die with "crucifixes in their hands."

editBill Young was a friend since childhood in the 60s and 70s in Thailand where I grew up. After I myself served in the US Army special forces I came back to help people under attack in Burma. We Started a relief organization which we continue now . Bill Young was a wonderful man and friend and great help to people in need. We are very sad that he took his own life but it’s true that in one hand was his gun the other hand was a crucifix.We all felt like he felt guilty that he was shooting himself, and wanted to cling to the symbol of Jesus where he has his eternal hope. I was part of his burial and the funeral. Thank you and God bless you, David Eubank. 2001:44C8:41B8:3DCF:9962:40F0:8B8B:7246 (talk) 03:47, 16 April 2023 (UTC)
