Missouri state Rep. Ben Baker says his daughter and son-in-law were killed in Haiti while they were serving as missionaries.
In a post on Facebook on Friday, Baker wrote, “My heart is broken in a thousand pieces. I’ve never felt this kind of pain. Most of you know my daughter and son-in-law Davy and Natalie Lloyd are full time missionaries in Haiti.”
“They were attacked by gangs this evening and were both killed. They went to Heaven together. Please pray for my family we desperately need strength,” he continued.
Finally, Baker added, “And please pray for the Lloyd family as well. I have no other words for now.”
