Default FALLEN RIDER

We lost one of our riders this weekend. He did nothing wrong, and was in full gear. The accident happenedbeacause a deer jumped out onto the highway and he could not avoid hitting it. He was 43, a husband, father and recent grandfather. Ike was a great guy and a good rider. PLEASE, EVERYONE BE CAREFUL OUT THERE, DAY OR NIGHT. WEAR THERIGHT GEAR, WATCH YOUR SURROUNDINGS AND BE SAFE. 2007 has had a lot of death, not cool! I look to you all for advice, comments, stories, pics, a lot of friendship. Please be safe out there.. My heart breaks for the loss of a friend and for his family. I have known him for about 6 of the 10 years he has worked with me. I don't wanna write about this again. Thanks for listening.

That is so sad. We can be careful, and control most of our situation, but you never know. Sorry for the loss of a friend, and my heart goes out to anyone who knew him. Its just heart wrenching to think about those who are now without him. We'll be thinking of you, the family and all of our loved ones as we continue to enjoy this great passionwe all hold in common. Take care.

John 5:28,29 is the hope I hang on to for all those I want to see again.'

"Do not marvel at this, for an hour is coming when all who are in the tombs will hear his voice 29and come out, those who have done good to the resurrection of life, and those who have done evil to the resurrection of judgment."

Revelation 21:4 And he will wipe out every tear from their eyes, and death will be no more, neither will mourning nor outcry nor pain be anymore. The former things have passed away.â€
