Thanks to all who rendered help after motorcycle crash
My husband was involved in a motorcycle wreck while trying to go to work Monday morning. A truck pulled out in front of him on Peach Orchard Road. Instead of T-boning the truck, my husband locked the brakes and laid his bike down, falling off in the process. The person who pulled out in front of him never even stopped, leaving my husband lying bleeding in the road.
I want to sincerely thank each and every one of the witnesses who stopped to offer aid to him before medics arrived. I donít know what would have happened if you had not offered help and assistance to Stewart. I know the driver of the pickup that left the scene does not care, but to those that offered aid, Stewart was flown to Wake Forest Baptist Medical Center and had emergency surgery on his right leg. He broke his right shoulder, right femur and had stitches in his lip, along with a lot of road rash. But he is alive and making great recovery.
Also, great thanks to the witness that followed the truck and got its tag number. This helped police find the driver, and I and my husband are grateful to you for that. To the person who was wearing military gear and helped Steward, we have your camo jacket. My husband would like to return it to you. Thank you to all who helped my husband, Stewart Thomas.

Great job in restoring power
I would like to give a hearty thank you to the Duke Energy workers an other utility employees who worked to repair outages from the storm. I was out of power for two days, and my power was restored last night. The workers were very dedicated.

Gift of car answered a prayer
Regarding the April 1 article ěWoman gets chance to ëpay back kindness people showedí her years agoî:
Ask and it shall be given unto you. Seek and you shall find. Knock and the door shall be opened unto you. Hallelujah, Jesus is alive.
Samantha Doolittle and her family needed a car. She had continued to pray and pray. She loved Jesus, and Jesus heard her prayers. I am so glad to hear Jesus is alive and answers prayers. He sent an angel in the form of Estelle Griffin.
Weíve only one person to believe in, and thatís Godís son, Jesus Christ, who died on the cross for our sins. If you donít know him, youíll find him at church.

An easier way to cross street
David Murdock goes to a great expense to put a tunnel under Loop Road in Kannapolis so people can go from the park to his buildings.
There is a much simpler way to do that. Place a pole at the corner of West A Street and Loop Road. Push a button and all the lights turn to red. This way people could cross the road and proceed to the Murdock buildings. He could have used that money to replace all the roads in Kannapolis, get rid of the potholes and make driving much better.
