Pray for Eric Daios
Eric was involved in a car accident involving 2 cars and a pickup truck. He was on his way to a convention for work in Utah and his car blew a flat tire. He was carrying his coworkers in his car with him. At the time, he was being followed by the minivan which caravaned his other coworkers inside. The two cars pulled over to the side of the road to change to a spare tire. Eric and his coworker was pulling out the spare tire and right after they had pulled out the tire, the minivan which was parked behind eric's car got struck from behind by a man in a pickup truck who had fallen asleep behind the wheel. The minivan then crushed eric and his coworker inbetween his subaru and the minivan. Unfortunately there was one death and the rest was injured.

Damn... this must've been the call I missed. Sorry Ave, I was working at the time, hope you got the text. Thanks for the info. Thoughts and prayers go out to Eric and company. I've tried calling him, but I'm pretty sure his phone is off for obvious reasons. Figured it wouldn't hurt to try.
