Drinking and driving and not wearing your seatbelt is very dangerous and shows no regard for the safety of yourself or others.
Chris Young is having surgery on his hip tomorrow. His hip & leg were both crushed & they had to give him 2 pints of blood. Luckily, the internal bleeding has stopped and he is stable enough for surgery.
Thank you to all who are so sympathetic to our family. My sister in law, her husband, the grandkids, Other children of Mr.Rardon will be thankful there are people praying for them. This is a hard loss for our family....He was a great man and will terribly missed. For Christopher Youngs Family. We send many prayers out to you! May he have a FULL recovery!
