Please say a few prayers for my next door neighbors. There was a horrible accident there last night. Gail, our neighbor was out working her horse when I went pass there farm, we waved, that was about 6pm, about 7:15pm, we heard alot of sirens going and then the rescue squad took off. The squad building is only one road over from our farm, so we can hear it every time. It seemed like they barely turned the sirens on, and they shut them off, so we knew it was close to us. I live 20 acres off a main hyway, so we thought a accident. Found out early this morning, Gails husbands' bull got out, and Gail went to corner him on horseback, at the far end of the field, which is only about 20 acres from us. She was on her cell with her hubby, and apparently he was going to shoot the yearling bull calf. (still not sure why he was going to shoot this yearling) anyways,she told him to go ahead and shoot, he shot and the bullet hit/killed the bull, and somehow went thru the calf and also hit and killed Gail. Everything is under investigtion. She worked as a dispatcher for our sheriff's dept. I feel so sorry for what her family is going thru. She left behind a husband, a 17 yr old son, and a 14 year old daughter. She worked with the 4H kids alot and there horses. Her and her daughter loved there 5 horses and there dogs. I sure did lose a good neighbor. So , please if you have any prayers left could you spare one for Gails family. Corinne
