John Yarbrough Killed in Car Accident, Brother Linnie Badly Injured

On the morning of March 17 tragedy struck when Hunters Lane HS alum John Yarbrough was killed in a fatal car accident. His brother, former Middle Tennessee star, Linnie Yarbrough is currently hanging on in the ICU.

Although things are still extremely critical for Linnie, he has recently made some progress. His father reports that on March 19 he was finally aple to open his eyes and has some conciousness now of the presence and touch of his family. We pray for his continued progress and recovery and for the family dealing with the loss of John while being with Linnie.

The family is in dire need of your financial assistance in covering the cost associated with the death and medical bills. While of course you can give more, the suggested donation is just $10 and if we can come together as a running community we can surely help them bear some of that burden.
