Heavy Heart

This evening a small boy disappeared on the station. He is 4 or 5 years old. His brother is a patient in the hospital, and he was staying with his uncle, a station employee. He went for water (from a near-by outdoor facet, I assume), and didn't return. The uncle lives near the canal for the hydroelectric system, so after a search of the area failed to find him, the water was shut off. When I got the call, I went, along with Dr. Scott Dooley, Mike Chapman, Bill McCoy and visiting team leader Randy Cronk, along with about 25 station staff, to help with the search. After the water level in the canal went down, we searched the canal and the overflow thoroughly, but he wasn't found. We're hoping that he's just at someone's house; maybe he got lost and someone took him in for the night.

I'm sorry, but I don't even know the little guy's name, but I'm asking you to pray. I'm writing this at a bit after 11 PM here, which would be 6 AM Mountain time. I'll let you know when we learn anything.
