September 1, 2016:
yesterday would've been
Dad's 102nd birthday.
on Tuesday the 30th, Bill Lohr
was hurt in a tractor accident.
Fractured pelvis, broken leg,
fractured ankle. He started
the ignition of the tractor
from the ground and didn't
know it was in gear. It moved
+ smashed him against the barn
wall, drove through the wall
+ into the lake. Bill must've
been in shock and drove
him to a local hospital. Now
self he is in Nebraska medical.
Has to be off his legs for
3 months.
