Guys i am sure you may already know but we need to keep the Kapoi's in our prayers. Bro. Kapoi's nephew was killed lastnight when he was hit by a car, while trying to cross 231. RJ came to church several times with them and road my grandma's bus a couple years. My grandma said he would come to her bus everyday and give her a hug before he went and got on his bus. So remember my grandma to in your prayers as she was sadden when i told her last night.



Teen hit, killed on U.S. 231
By Tony Bridges
BAYOU GEORGE

A teenage boy was killed Wednesday evening trying to cross a darkened section of U.S. 231.

The 15-year-old was pronounced dead at the scene, according to police. His name had not been released late Wednesday.

Panama City police said he was struck by a 1998 Chrysler in the northbound lanes as he tried to cross from east to west, just north of Bayou George Drive.

The impact threw his body into the median, where it lay, covered by a sheet, at about 6:30 p.m., shortly after the accident. Orange cones marked the spot where his sneakers rested in the road.

Two other boys with him when he tried to cross told police they were headed to a nearby convenience store, said Capt. Robert Colbert, patrol commander for the Panama City Police Department.

Richard Turner, live-in manager of Pac & Stac Storage, said he was sitting on his back porch with his wife when the boy was hit. The facility is on the west side of 231.

"We heard a loud thud," he said. "We thought it was another wreck."

He ran to the front of the building and saw two hysterical boys across the road.

"They were hollering, 'He's knocked out, he's knocked out,'" Turner said.

At first, he did not see the teen's body. There was a bronze-colored sedan pulled onto the median several yards north of the screaming boys, so he ran to check on the driver. The woman in the car, huddled over and upset, told him she had hit someone, he said.

That's when Turner spotted the body of a young man lying in the grass.

"I felt for a pulse," he said. "He didn't have one. There was nothing I could do for him."

He said it is common for kids from the Sweetwater area to cross U.S. 231 near Bayou George Drive to reach the convenience store up the road.

The driver of the Chrysler is a 53-year-old local woman, according to police, but her name was not released.

No charges were filed Wednesday.

It just shows you how fast things can happen. One minute you're concerned about the cares of this world, then next, you're gone.

We need to be mindful of his family and hold them up in prayer.

Does he need to announce it to the world? 

Don't you 2 talk on the phone or email any more? 

[MelodyB]

Nope. Not lately, he lost his phone, I havent talked to him for about a week. He did call from a friends phone yesterday, but I didnt think to ask him that. I just need to know ahead of time, so I can plan my drive. Its gonna be a killer. LOL

And we have never e-mailed. GP has always been our main source of online communication. We dont e-mail, and talking to him on IM is just weird.
