It is with a
very heavy heart that I must tell all of you that Tim & I were in a roll
over car accident on Sunday morning. Tim did not make it through. He died at the
scene holding my hand. I am fine. No broken bones. Just bruising, sore ribs
& muscles. There will be a Memorial service on Saturday Nov. 24 at 4:00 PM.
In lieu of flowers I have requested a donation be made to one of the following
foundations:
Vanderbilt Lung Transplant Patient Assistance Fund Attn: Yvonne Moneypenny Wounded Warrior Project National Foundation For Cancer Research http://www.nfcr.org/ Thank you so much for all of your prayers & support through our ordeals over the past few years. I really do appreciate it. In Christ's love, Sandi |
