Please Say A Prayer for The Herbert Family

This was posted today on NHRA and DRC. This is beyond tradegy once again in the drag racing world. Please take the time to say a prayer for all the families involved.

LINCOLNTON, N.C. -- The two young sons of Top Fuel racer Doug Herbert were killed in an automobile accident Saturday morning in Lake Norman, N.C. Jon, 17, and James, 12, died instantly when their Mazda3 collided with a second vehicle.
Herbert, who was in Phoenix for preseason testing, is devastated and headed home to be with his family.

Condolences can be sent to Raymer Funeral Home, 16901 Old Statesville Road, Huntersville, N.C. 28078.

In lieu of flowers, Herbert asks that people make a donation to the Speedway Children's Charities in Jon and James Herbert's name.

Details regarding a memorial service will be forthcoming.

 

Doug-- either you really like him or you hate him--I really like him because of all the charitable and humanitarian deeds has done for Billy Williams and his wife!
A real heartbreaker to lose children- Life is not supposed to work that way!
