HE WAS MOVED FROM ICU ON WEDNESDAY JUNE 7 TO A REGULAR ROOM. THE MEDICAL BILLS ARE MOUNTING. DEAN AND ANGELA ARE ABOUT 340 MILES AWAY FROM HOME. HIS YAMAHA WARRIOR WAS FOUND ABOUT 300 FEET DOWN THE MOUNTAIN AND IS PRETTY WELL TOTALED.

I really feel for them Chickenman, Last night a bunch of the Highschool Kids in town were having a graduatiom party. There were a group of them that have ATV's. One of the boys took a Girl for a ride they hit a barbwire fence, she fell off the back and broke her neck and died Instantly, I'm from a small town and the whole town is in mourn for her. She was only 18 and had just graduated! My wife just told me about it about an hour ago, So please Keep this "Girl From Galena" In your prayers, and Pray for her Family. Thanks.

Bosty22 P.S. I left out Her Name for the Family.

 

Even though you don't know people personaly,you still have that common bond.We all feel sorry for ourselves till we look around and so easy to find others that are far worse off than we are.Thanks for shareing the story,as sad as it maybe.As I say it could be any of us next.The last time I was in MOAB my friend borrowed my 425 and him and my grandson went for ride my friend hit a rock and rolled the quad both are ok.Luckily CM

 

You Don't know what you have until you don't have your Health. All you have to do is have Respect for the Quads. Thank you for the story Chicken man, I've been Keeping them in my thoughts and prayers.

God Bless You!

I know the feeling.

I went through burrying a 14 year old on memorial day. James was one of my brothers best friends and was my girlfriends cousin. Burrying him was probably the hardest thing I have done in my lifetime.

All I can say is to be thankful for each and every day. That "good book" says the death is one step behind you.

You guys will be in my prayers,
