I want to take the time to write to all who are mourning the loss of this young Man Josh. I am a mom of 6 children, I have 3 sons who rollerbade.
As a Mother I CAN NOT imagine loosing a child, DO NOT want to even think about it for a moment…THIS IS A MOTHERS WORST NIGHT MARE!!!! God Bless the Parents and the family and friends of this young man JOSH WAGGONER, My heart goes out to you, you are all in my prayers. This is the second young friend of my son’s to die in the past week because of making bad choices.
Josh not wearing a helmet and the other young man jumped into Barren River to retrieve his shoes and lost his life!!!
…YES, two very different circumstances but, two choices that would have had better out comes if they had only thought before they acted…
LIFE IS VERY FRAGILE!

When you are young, you see on TV and the media that accidents happen and people get hurt and die, but you never think it could happen to you or your friends and family, it’s just on tv right!?
…you are young, you will live forever…right?

Until something like this happens and your lives are effected. This is a hard lesson, but you young people will still think that it won’t happen to you, and you will go on not wearing helmets, and making choices that can seriously effect your lives and the lives of those around you. This is not the first head injury or body injury due to not wearing the proper body and head gear guys and girls…We almost lost Jon from Blue Wallace not that long ago remember?! I could not believe that in that event the kids from Blue Wallace and else where still insist they don’t need head gear, it won’t happen to them! My own 17 year old son Mitchell tells me, “MOM you worry too much!”and “I am careful, It’s not gonna happen to me mom!” He tells me “You are too protective of me MOM!” and “You worry Too Much!”

PLEASE SON, PLEASE ALL OF YOU YOUNG MEN AND WOMEN, LOOK AT THIS TRAGIC ACCIDENT, THIS TERRIBLE LOSS!
You can not bring Josh back, But YOPU CAN SAVE YOUR LIFE, and YOUR FRIENDS LIVES! Talk to eachother about this, love one another and yourselves enough to WEAR the PROTECTIVE gear that will save your lives in the event that you don’t make your trick. IF YOU DO THIS AS A TRIBUTE TO JOSH AND THOSE WHO HAVE LOST LIVES IN THIS WAY AND OTHERS…YOU CAN MAKE A DIFFERECE IN THE FUTURE OF YOUR LIVES AND OTHERS, DO THIS FOR JOSH, IN MEMORY OF HIM!!!!

Think about this please! There are Mentors at all these clubs and Skate Groups that should start by setting this example, Chad, Steven, Brad, Jon, you all know who you are…at Blue and every where,…I am SO PROUD of you boys that set such honorable examples in many other ways, please set this example too. These kids follow by example the youth leaders, and you all know who you are. Set this very important one now and it wiil spread, until all kids and youth are doing this one simple thing….
WEARING PROTECTIVE HEAD GEAR AND BODY GEAR.

My HEARTY GOES OUT TO JOSH AND HIS FAMILY AND FRIENDS,
GOD BLESS YOU ALL!
