The man that was killed in the wreck, was my sweet brother Billy Coleman. He was the paasenger in the car with Benny Justice. This is a horrible tragedy, for our whole family. Please keep us in your prayers. It's like a awful nightmare that never goes away, I wish we could just wake up and he be here with us again. Sissy Loves you Billy & I miss you so much. My Heart is broken, I dont think I'm gonna make it without you!!!!

i am truly sorry for their loss. Hope and pray that the two drivers will be ok. But there are bad accidents that happen right here in the tri-state area all the time that never get reported or there will be one story and it is never updated. I know of several on my road that people are flown to cabell or st. marys and you never hear about them. It would be nice to hear about the things that happen in our own area. So that we know how these people are doing that live in our own communitys.
