Thoughts and Prayers

Thoughts and Prayers go out to Bear Divide Hotshot Superintendent Mike Alarid and his family for the loss of his 19 yr. old daughter Sarah who went missing on Jan. 1, after a New Years Eve party.  Local authorities, volunteers and family have been searching for Sarah.  Today the search ended with the finding of Sarah's body and her wrecked car in a ravine near Little Tijunga Canyon in Los Angeles County.
