Sometimes Life Sucks

Hey everyone.  Today's post is not about me at all.  First some background.  Growing up I went to a public school and went to a church that provided a private school.  Myself and a few others that did not attend both church and school were pretty much outcasts.  As we all got older, it got easier to be part of the group but there was always that line.  (This is part of what has given me such issues with organized religion)  Anyways, some of the people I met through that youth group were good friends and some were good people and some were more closed off.  My mother and I left that church for multiple reasons and I lost touch with many of those people.  After many years and thanks to Facebook I can now follow them and see what is going on in their lives.  
There was this one guy that I never knew really well, but he was always nice and I was never treated differently by him.  He is the kind of person that is nice to everyone, positive, and just that great guy.  Like I said I never knew him well, and after finding him on Facebook, we didn't talk.  Well he got married and was living his life and was about to be a dad.  On July 31st, 2012 his wife and unborn baby died from a blood clot that went into her lungs.  When he first posted the information on Facebook, I thought it was some horrible joke.  Unfortunately it was true and his life is forever changed.  I never met her, but I have only heard great things about her.  I just know that someone who treated me so well when I was an outsider had a big effect on me and he did not deserve to have this happen to him.  
So my question is this.  Why do such horrible things happen to good people? Maybe once I die and I'm in heaven I'll find out the answer to this and the other millions of questions I have.  I do know that I don't know how he is getting through this time because just the thought of losing the hubban eventually puts me into a spin that blows my mind.  I also know that it made me go home and tell my husband I love him besides the quick "love you".  So, if you can send up a prayer or thought to help this guy and his family get through this horrible time and make sure you tell your loved ones that you love them.
