Sometimes it's the best room in my house. It's quiet, my computer is out there and I can fall asleep in a comfortable chair if I choose or listen to music without interruption. Everyone here knows where to find me, In My Garage.

urgent prayer request

A friend of my I have known since the 1980's has been hurt.
His daughter sent me this request.
Please pray for them.

URGENT PRAYER REQUEST

From Margaret Ann Schaaf

Concerning Rodney Stevens:

Sent to me on June 10, 2009

 

 

My father was at work today and an explosion/chemical fire engulfed him in flames, while he was up in the air on a scissor lift. He had to either stay up there burning or jump, so he jumped. He broke several bones, which he then had to roll around on, to try to put out the flames, because he was still on fire. That ground the melted clothing further into his skin. They airlifted him to the hospital with 27% of his body covered in third degree burns. He is heavily sedated, and they begin surgeries tomorrow to repair the broken bones, and begin skin grafts. He is expected to be in the hospital for six weeks, followed by two years worth of skin graft surgeries. Please keep him in your prayers, and ask others to pray for him?

About Me

My photo
Salem, Oregon, United States
I am married; 5 kids and 7 grandkids. We traveled alot while I was growing up. Life as a kid was a combination of The Sand Lot, Stand By Me, Radio Flyer and American Graffiti. After high school we moved to Silverton, OR where I met Jean on August 10th, 1970. We married in 1971 and have been most happy together ever since. We started having kids right away. We lived in a commune for awhile in the seventies. I went to college, worked in construction and deconstruction, worked as a taxi driver, bus driver, school bus driver, truck driver, warehouse manager, food service cook, cannery worker, certified medical aide, direct care and indirect care, recreation therapist, girls softball coach, soccer coach, Special Olympics coach for basketball and bowling. I have done some acting and singing. I have worked on March-of-dimes campaigns. I was union steward and shift supervisor. My art work is developing. I am hoping to spend a lot more time in that area of my life. Staying healthy and active these days.
