Read this in the morning "paper":

RINGTOWN, Pa. — A 19-year-old Pennsylvania man riding his bicycle across the country to raise awareness and money for breast cancer research was struck and killed by an SUV in New Mexico.

Officials say John Anczarski, of Ringtown, Pa., died Tuesday of injuries suffered a day earlier in New Laguna, N.M., about 50 miles west of Albuquerque.

Anczarski, a University of Colorado engineering student, and three friends called their project "The Pink Pedal." The group said it had raised several thousand dollars for cancer research.

    We live in southern New Mexico and heard about this on the local news. It made me so sad to hear this news. I pray that his family and friends find comfort in knowing that he has touched many lives by his honorable actions. God Bless.
