prayer request

[Dave Withrow]

I'm not sure if many of you know Larry Shope.  He builds and races Pentons and KTMs.  This past weekend must have been tough for him and his family.
During Saturday's Cross Country at Casey, Larry went down and ended up with his bike laying on top of him.  He was in such a position that he couldn't get the bike off of himself, resulting in 2nd and 3rd degree burns from the exhaust pipe on his back and right arm.  
The next morning Larry pulls into the pits and said he had to get back to Oklahoma.  I figured it was due to the burns, but he said his father-in-law had past away during the night.
You know, sometimes we have bad days at the track.....throw a chain, have a flat,break a bike, but when events like Larry had experienced happen, it makes us remember the "real" important things.
Get well soonest, Larry...and peace be with you and your family.......

Dave,
  Do you have Larry's e-mail or address so that we can show our concern?  Thanks for keeping us updated and it does give us a reality check on the "real" important things.

Larry,  
  If you do read this you and your family will be in my prayers.

Yes Larry, sorry to hear about the Loss. just because it is not your father does not mean that it does not effect you deeply, I will let my church know so that we can hold you all up in prayer. Take care and keep looking up!
