Default Lost a friend yesterday
Just got word a friend who used to work with me was killed in a motorcycle accident yesterday morning. He retired from the Navy about a year before I did and started working here in Indiana. I met him about 6 years ago when I started working here.
The police report said no other vehicles were involved. It appeared his motorcycle went off the North side of the road, hit a dirt embankment. The accident happened around 9 AM yesterday, he was not wearing a helmet.

Life is too short.

Sorry to hear about your friend.

As I get older, life becomes more valuable. I agree, life is to short.

Thanks everyone for your thoughts and prayers. I am still in shock after hearing of his death. He had just stopped by last Monday and shot the breeze for a bit.

Thanks again for all the prayers and thoughts.
