On Tuesday, February 24 Dick, Jerry and Judi were enjoying a ride on their motorcycles through the small town of Lake Wales, Florida when the day was tragically interrupted by an accident. A car ahead of Dick was cut off by another and Dick tried to avoid running into the back of the car by swerving off of the road on to the shoulder and was thrown from his bike. He was taken to Lake Wales emergency room and was treated for severe head injuries, facial fractures and severely bruised lungs. He was then transported by helicopter to Tampa General Hospital where he is now being treated in the Trauma ICU. At this time Dick remains in an induced coma, he is in stable condition and all of his vital signs are good. We would like to thank all of the people from Lake Wales Hospital and those who were at the scene of the accident from the police and fire department for everything they did to help. Dick's children, Amy and Mike are here in Florida along with other family members. We will continue to update this blog as possible.
