Yesterday was a day of information overload that left us all with very heavy hearts.
Jenn was finally able to get a full picture of all the military efforts to find Joe and also to hear all the last known details of the plane. Some of it was quite overwhelming. All of it was intense. We are so grateful for the honesty and openness that was given yesterday. Some things are hard to hear, but necessary to have the whole picture.
After the meeting, we agreed that any further land search would not be beneficial. As of just yesterday, there were 2 Navy sonars out combing the waters. This is a very slow and tedious process. The Coast Guard was confident that today or tomorrow something would show up now that they finally have the equipment to do a thorough underwater search. And they were correct. Today they got a ping from the sonar and they are 99% sure it's the plane. They cannot confirm yet if Joe is in cockpit or not. Due to weather they can't dive on it until tomorrow or Tuesday. We are hoping this will bring answers. We will update when there is new information.
We have been told there will be a Navy memorial service this Friday the 20th. I will post the details as soon as I have them.
Please continue to pray for the family.
Psalm 69:13
But as for me, my prayer is to You, O LORD. At an acceptable time;
O God, in the greatness of Your lovingkindness,
Answer me with Your saving truth.
