A Benefit ::

Late last Friday afternoon there was a terrible accident on Cecil Ashburn Drive and 2 young girls were killed when the driver of the car lost control coming down the mountain into Jones Valley. The twin sister of one of the girls was severely injured and is now in Neurological Intensive Care at Huntsville Hospital. The mother was recently laid off from her job at the Marshall Space Flight Center and had taken a job at the Lowe's in Hampton Cove.

Tomorrow afternoon and evening Lowe's will have a tent set up outside their store where they will be accepting donations for the family in order to help them through this terrible time. Donations can also be made to Cadence Bank along with Redstone Federal Credit Union.

I plan to stop by Lowe's on my way home tomorrow and donate a few dollars and I hope that everyone will. Besides the grief of losing a daughter and having another in NICU, the costs will be astronomical. I have no idea what Lowe's insurance is like, but I'll bet I can safely say that it will not come close to covering the expenses for this family!

Please, help if you can.

(update) I just found out that there will also be a benefit show for the Morrow family at The Lone Goose saloon at 108 Cleveland Ave. Thursday evening starting at around 8pm. Come out and listen to some great music and make a donation to a great cause.
