On Wednesday January 13th, 2016 our amazing, super human like father, husband, brother, uncle, friend was hard at work as usual in Jerome, Idaho preparing to unload his trailer when he took and unexpected 5 foot fall. Unfortunately the back of his head took the brunt of this accident. He lost consciousness for approximately 5 minutes and was transported via ground ambulance to Twin Falls, Idaho. It was there they determined Dad had suffered a traumatic closed head injury to include a base skull fracture and significant cerebral hemorrhaging. He also sustained injury to his cervical spine at C3-C7. It was at this time Dad was placed in a medication induced coma to protect his airways. He was then transported via air ambulance to a Trauma 2 Hospital in Pocatella, Idaho where he remains in critical condition in the ICU.
