We passed a really bad accident today involving a truck & dirt bike on Hwy 50. We are praying for the victims of this accident & hope all are okay. It looked to be a teenager on the dirtbike and there were no signs of a helmet
Tonight at revival the pastor told us that the boy was in critical condition. Please continue to pray for this family.
Brandon Spence passed away around 1 am. This was a horrible accident. Please pray for all involved....family, friends and the poor man that hit him. Brandon was an 8th grader at McGees.
Life is often so short that we all tend to take it for granted.. Prayers go out for this horrific tragedy...:grouphug::grouphug:
Wish I would have seen this before my son left for school. He is in the 8th grade at McGees. Would have liked to talked to him about this before hearing it at school. Thoughts and prayers go out to this family.
My daughter is in the 8th grade at McGees and knew Brandon. My prayers go out to the Spence family. She will be attending the funeral and if anybody needs a ride, I would be more than happy to help out.
My thoughts and prayers continue to be with this family. I cannot imagine what they must be going thru. I pray that God will give them peace.
My son is in the 8th grade at McGees as well and knows Brandon. We will all be praying for strength and peace for his family. I can not imagine what they must be going through. Life is so precious. Wish I had known before school...
