Family of Irving 'Bud' Feldkamp, Owner
of the Nation's Largest Privately Owned Abortion Chain, Dies in Montana
Plane Crash
MEDIA ADVISORY, Mar. 24 /Christian
Newswire/ -- Some of you may have seen the major news story of the
private plane that crashed into a Montana cemetery, killing 7 children
and 7 adults.
But what the news sources fail to
mention is that the Catholic Holy Cross Cemetery owned by Resurrection
Cemetery Association in Butte - contains a memorial for local residents
to pray the rosary, at the 'Tomb of the Unborn'. This memorial, located
a short distance west of the church, was erected as a dedication to all
babies who have died because of abortion.
What else is the mainstream news not
telling you? The family who died in the crash near the location of the
abortion victim's memorial, is the family of Irving 'Bud' Feldkamp,
owner of the largest for-profit abortion chain in the nation.
Family Planning Associates was
purchased four years ago by Irving Moore "Bud" Feldkamp III, owner of
Allcare and Hospitality Dental Associates and CEO of Glen Helen Raceway
Park in San Bernardino. The 17 California Family Planning clinics
perform more abortions in the state than any other abortion provider -
Planned Parenthood included - and they perform abortions through the
first five months of pregnancy.
Although Feldkamp is not an
abortionist, he reaps profits of blood money from the tens of thousands
of babies that are killed through abortions performed every year at the
clinics he owns. His business in the abortion industry was what enabled
him to afford the private plane that was carrying his family to their
week- long vacation at The Yellowstone Club, a millionaires-only ski
resort.
The plane went down on Sunday, killing
two of Feldkamp's daughters, two sons-in-law and five grandchildren
along with the pilot and four family friends. The plane, a single-engine
turboprop flown by Bud Summerfield of Highland, crashed into the
Catholic cemetery and burst into flames, only 500 ft. from its landing
destination. All aboard were killed.
The cause of the crash is a mystery.
The pilot, who was a former military flier who logged over 2,000 miles,
gave no indication to air traffic controllers that the aircraft was
experiencing difficulty when he asked to divert to an airport in Butte.
Witnesses report that the plane suddenly nosedived toward the ground
with no apparent signs of a struggle. There was neither a cockpit voice
recorder nor a flight data recorder onboard, and no radar clues into the
planes final moments because the Butte airport is not equipped with a
radar facility. Some speculate that the crash was due to ice on the
wings, but this particular plane model has been tested for icy weather
and experts have stated that ice being the cause is unlikely.
In my time working for Survivors of
the Abortion Holocaust, I helped organize and conduct a weekly campaign
where youth activists stood outside of Feldkamp's mini-mansion in
Redlands holding fetal development signs and raising community awareness
regarding Feldkamp's dealings in child murder for profit. Every Thursday
afternoon we called upon Bud and his wife Pam to repent, seek God's
blessing and separate themselves from the practice of child killing.
We warned him, for his children's
sake, to wash his hands of the innocent blood he assisted in spilling
because, as Scripture warns, if "you did not hate bloodshed, bloodshed
will pursue you". (Ezekiel 35:6)
A news source states that Bud Feldkamp
visited the site of the crash with his wife and their two surviving
children on Monday. As they stood near the twisted and charred debris
talking with investigators, light snow fell on the tarps that covered
the remains of their children.
I don't want to turn this tragic event
into some creepy spiritual 'I told you so' moment, but I think of the
time spent outside of Feldkamp's - Pam Feldkamp laughing at the fetal
development signs, Bud Feldkamp trying not to make eye contact as he got
into his car with a small child in tow - and I think of the haunting
words, 'Think of your children.' I wonder if those words were haunting
Feldkamp as well as he stood in the snow among the remains of loved
ones, just feet from the 'Tomb of the Unborn'?
I only hope and pray that in the face
of this tragedy, Feldkamp recognizes his need for repentance and
reformation. I pray that God will use this unfortunate catastrophe to
soften the hearts of Bud and Pam and that they will draw close to the
Lord and wash their hands of the blood of thousands of innocent
children, each as precious and irreplaceable as their own.
"I have set before you life and death,
the blessing and the curse. Choose life, then." (Deut. 30:19)
