I fill in for a local doctor on occasion. He and his wife are awesome people.
Their youngest son, 18 y/o, would have been 19 in September, went to work for the park service to fight fires this summer. Last Friday he was flown to a fire outside Redding, CA. He was on a "mop up" crew and a tree fell on him and he was killed - 2 hours after arriving at the fire, his first fire. His family and friends are devastated, of course. Please say a prayer for his family and friends. |

Thank you all, he was not your normal 18 y/o. He was hardworking, was even a "Big Brother" to a kid in our community. He was going to college in September and was just doing this job to make some extra money.
The family started a scholarship at the school for him, and the park service has set up some kind of scholarship too in his memory. |
