Our first Fatality

[dannyboy]

FYI we have lost one of our drivers last week.

Jerry G Adkerson, 48, a 19 year veteran employee died when he lost control of his package car on the interstate, crossed the median, and crashed head on into a tractor trailer rig. It happened in Missouri January 23. HE is survived by his mother, a son, two daughters, and several brothers and sisters. No work on whether he was wearing the seat belt, but it is doubtful it would have made a difference in this case, after veiwing the photo of the accident scene.

My prayers go out to his family, and the coworkers he leave behind.

Losing a friend, fellow employee or anyone else is always a sad day, no matter what the cause. I will have a good thought for the deceased and their families.
