Default R.I.P. William Ogle

My wife's best friend's father, William Ogle, passed away yesterday after being hit by a dirt late model race car that broke loose from it's trailer on I-24 in Chattanooga, TN. He was a new rider with a little more than a year under his riding belt. But in this kind of freak accident years riding has little to do with survival.

Please, pray for his family as he leaves behind his parents, a daughter and grandson. My wife also considered him as a second father since she had known him for 21 years.

The news story can be found here.

Keep the rubber side down.

My best regards to all those who knew him.

I would have never imagined anything like that happening.
