Landen Philip Bailey

Chris Skinner commented in her last post about an "article about Landen". For those who don't live in the Zanesville area, I'll fill you in. Ked Bailey's youngest son, Clete, lost his six year old son this week in a horrible accident. He was riding a four-wheeler with his seven year old cousin and when they turned to go around the corner of the barn, they lost control. Kylee was thrown off (suffered a few cuts and bruises) and although Landen was also thrown, the four-wheeler rolled onto him. Clete and Kendra (Kylee's mom) were outside watching them; Kendra had just looked away to pick up another child, but Clete saw the whole thing. An ambulance was called, arrived, and called for the helicopter to come. When they got him to the hospital, the doctors realized there was nothing they could do. That was Tuesday night. It's been a very emotionally draining week. The family has had a VERY hard time. We've been praying deligently, and God has been good. The funeral service was today, and Clete spoke. Anyone who knows Clete knows that that isn't in his character. He shared memories, and it was very touching. Please remember the whole Bailey family in your prayers as they face the days ahead. Grandma Clara seems to be having a very difficult time.
