The passenger, my friend George Sulzbach (Known to many as an employee at Richardson's gas station near where the accident happened, next door to The Buck Wild Saloon) is doing much better today, and will be moving into a room, away from the Critical Care ward. Good news for a tragic day.

And the family of George Sulzbach did know about the accident almost immediately, since I called his brother Jeff myself, as soon as I learned of it, Kimberly Phillippi Montee. It's all good,I've known the family almost 40 years, including their mom & dad.

And so it goes.

In updated news with George Sulzbach (the story about him and his nearly fatal accident are in this thread) the hospital and insurance company literally stole 8 thousand dollars in settlement money from him last week. So he's ready for a nervous breakdown.

They promised him almost 12,000 until he signed the check, now they say all he gets from the $25,000 is $3000... the hospital is taking the rest, for his three day stay in ICU.

I say he should sue the scoundrels.

Here's the television interview I did with George Sulzbach last year, displaying a lot of his art. Check out "KALEIDOSCOPE "George Sulzbach interview with Will Dockery"
