A life together...lost

Karen Kelly and her ex-convict boyfriend, Rasheed M. Watson, were planning a life together with their daughter and her three boys and girls.

Unfortunately, Watson was killed by a bullet to the chest after going to settle a disagreement. A Williamsport Sun-Gazette story tells how God related the bad news to Kelly:
Kelly said she fell asleep that night and was awakened just after midnight Wednesday morning by one of her daughters, who said, 'Mom, Wop's been shot.'

Wop was Watson's nickname.

'I started crying and praying to God, and God spoke to me that he was gone. God told me, 'Karen he's gone. He's gone.''

A female friend of Watson contacted Kelly at the scene and told her the news.

'I said, 'He's been shot,' and she said, 'No, he's dead.''

Watson was planning on giving Kelly an engagement ring for her birthday at the end of September.
