STONE MOUNTAIN - Daldoum Angelo-Koko is relying on his faith and his church to recover from the car crash that killed his wife and three of his children. <br>
<br>
The Sudanese refugee recalls the story of Job, who lost everything in an instant but remained faithful. <br>
<br>
Angelo-Koko says the generosity of his fellow church members and the community helped him after the crash. <br>
<br>
The church set up a fund that raised thousands of dollars to cover the family's medical expenses. <br>
<br>
A local funeral home gave the family a deep discount on service expenses and a local florist provided the yellow and rust-colored mums that adorned the four caskets. <br>

The crash happened the day before Thanksgiving as Angelo-Koko was driving his family's minivan on the way to Memphis, Tennessee.
