 Post subject: life sucks...
PostPosted: Wed May 18, 2005 8:03 pm 
this past weekend, my boss was killed driving home from his son's graduation. he was driving down I-17 on his motorcycle when he was rearended by a ford pickup. soon after he was life-flighted to Flagstaff Arizona where he was pronounced dead.

I say this in hopes that you will pray for the Dyer familly. He (Eddie Dyer) was an incredible human being. He was incredibly kind. Everyone knew him. As a matter of fact, his memorial sevice is this saturday and 300 to 600 bikers are expected (thats JUST the bikers).

The family is perty torn up. The news was of course a unpleasent shok.

So whether you believe or not I ask that you would pray for the family. They could use it ALOT.


one last thing. If you ride a bike please wear a helmet. It could be the one thing that keeps you alive if you ever come into a situation like this.

thank you and sorry about posting such a sad thing. Life is sucking at this end of things. :(

that sucks, my prayers to his family.....

i always wear a helmet, ohio dont have a helmet law if you have had your bike endorsment for over a year. i see ppl every day riding with no lid and i firmly belive that it is their choice to do so....but as for myself i dont care to the taste of bugs at 60mph.

and for those that dont ride..please, PLEASE watch out for the bikes. and remember, a bike can stop a hella lot quicker than a car or truck. dont tailgate.

I'm sorry to hear that man.
I now at least 4 people that have been killed while riding and one good friend from highschool has permanent brain damage. Its a dangerous hobby and I will never understand why I am so addicted to it...even after I had a bad accident myself.
