To Whom That This Matters, One Of the People That was In the wreck Was My Husband Christopher Morris, To Answers All Questions The Fact Is That No He did Not Have a seat Belt On And yes There was Alcohol Found in His Car. That does not conclude That He was Drunk.That Fateful Night His Life was taken For a reason That we all will not Know But Him and The Lord above. He is shining Down On us now. So I pray For all That Have no Concept Of Losing A love one and Assuming That all these People On this Devastating weekend.was DRUNK ! GOD BLESS YOU ALL. CHRISTOPHER MORRIS"S WIFE DEBRA !!!

I am the sister of Matt Johnson! and I have read some of the comments that have been made abouthis accident. I feel like it is very disrespectful of you who feel like you can speak your mind and feelings about a person you know nothing about. Matt was a l;oving father who past away onhis daughters 4th birthday. He was a loving father and husband. matt was loved by may people and will be missed by many. I am asking you that made comments about the accident to please keep your thoughts to yourself until you get the facts. Matt had not been drinking and was not wearing a seatbelt. he was on his way home from work to see his family. To the prople that made comments if you have a heart please keep your rude comments to yourself. it is a sad tragic thing that my family is going through and your have no right to disrespect us like that. pl;ease pray for our family we have trulely lost alot.
