Hurt also in the accident was his little wife Etta who he tossed to safety before taking the hit from the car.

What a good wife she had been to him, wonderful support of him and his efforts not only to provide for their family but also his brothers and sisters after his parents died. He told her what a good mother and grandmother she was and how much he really loved her. She cherished this talk and drew strentgh from it as she went on alone. What a wonderful life they had.
