When God calls you home, it doesn’t matter about if you are or are not wearing a seatbelt!!!
I love my husband and I thank those of you for your prayers..

It is really sad for his Mother and his only brother,His Mother only had the two boys.I pray the lord gives them strength and peace during this hard time.
A seatbelt has saved my life more than once just like my helmet has.. I wear mine because it’s the smart thing to do.. The belt also keeps you in place behind the controls so you have a chance of recovering from an event if one occurs..
This is very sad. My prayers go out to the family especially his wife and baby.
Once more— not using seat belt and was ejected. Very sorry for the family.
Praying for Ronnie’s Family!!! May God Comfort your heart!!
So many think that seatbelt is a bother. Everytime you hear ‘ not wearing seatbelt and was ejected ‘ you know the outcome.
So sad. Prayers for him and his family. Again people SEAT BELTS SAVES LIVES!!! God bless.
Praying for his family. So sad.
