James Ray Hall

He was a devoted husband, father, brother, and friend. He enjoyed being outdoors, gardening, fishing, hunting, and walking the property every day (to get his steps, he loved his Fitbit and was very competitive with his steps). In his down time he loved to lie down on the couch with his little shih tzu Boo Boo and watch gunsmoke and drink a coffee (black of course). He worked in the coal mines for over 39 years. He died while trying to swerve to miss a head-on collision from a driver who had fallen asleep behind the wheel at approximately 1:30 pm, coming home from the grocery store. My mother was also in the car, but survived the crash because the whole impact was on the driver’s side. He was D.O.A. on the scene.

Lorraine was a mother of six and a grandmother of many. She was so nurturing and loving. She was a godly woman. She always had a smile on her face and a gentle word she has missed so dearly.

Troy Lee Caldwell

He was a tow truck operator and was very dedicated to his job. He enjoyed it. He was loved by so many and loved his home town. He loved to do wood work, collecting hot wheels and model cars, and was all about his rock music. He always had a smile on his face even when nothing was going right for him. Diet Pepsi and burgers with no onions. He was a Father, Papaw, Son, and Brother. He was loading a vehicle up on a rollback and was hit by a semi. The driver was watching YouTube. Now our family is forever hurt.

Harold Stacy

Harold was gone in the blink of an eye, hit head-on. He was an amazing father who loved spending time with his children and grandchildren. His favorite thing to do was sit on the porch on a beautiful day, drinking his coffee. He is sadly missed by all.

Megan Mischelle Miller

Megan was a very outgoing young lady, who always wanted to help other people. She had a huge heart. She loved spirit days at school, hanging out with her girlfriends.

Megan was on her way home, when she overcorrected and, because she didn’t have her seatbelt on, she was ejected. If she had had her seatbelt on, she would have likely survived. Her organs were donated to help others.
