Monday 17, 2010

One of the worst days of a parents lives is when a son/daughter is hurt or killed. On Monday 17, 2010 Gordon and Lynnette Lyon can attest to this personally. It started out as a good day as Lynnette, Mary Jayne, Rachelle, and Kaymen were on their way up to Logan to see Christina's new baby girl. Gordon was out in the garage doing some cleaning. At 7:00 pm the Marine Core drove up to their house and Gordon said his heart dropped to the floor. They stood at attention and then walked towards the house. The first thing that they said was that David is alive, but that he had sustained some serious injuries. The report stated that David has suffered triple amputation but is in stable condition. He has bilateral amputations of the legs (both below the knees) and the right hand has also been amputated. We are awaiting more details and will keep you posted. Please keep David in your prayers.

  2. I went to High School with David. I learned this from another friend and have been reading about what has happened. I work in a Trauma 1 ER down in SLC so I understand the medical aspect of how bad he has been injured. I want to let you all know that I will be praying for him for the rest of my life. Please tell him thank you for his service and keeping us here at home safe from terrorists and the evils that are out there. God Bless you David and I wish you the very best recovery.
