Prayers for Richard Stetson

Joe Pinkston · 06-14-2012, 09:15 PM

Richard has been the starter at Orlando Speedworld Dragway for probably more than 30 years, so I'm sure some of you will know him. I'm not sure if the wall along the staging lanes or Richard has been at OSW the longest amount of time.

He was sent to a hospital in Orlando on Monday with what was thought to be a blood clot in his leg. They have determined that it is not a blood clot, but some other type of infection that they have not identified as of today.

Please keep Richard and his family in your prayers and thoughts. Let's hope and pray that the doctors can evaluate his problem and get him on to a speedy and full recovery. Thanks.

Hey Dan Moore, you're #1.

RIP Mark Graham & WB Hutto

Never met him, but there are too few really good people around.

I will certainly hold him, and his family up in prayer.

I got word on Facebook today that they have tried a different antibiotic on Richard and it's showing some positive signs! This is welcomed news!

Hey Dan Moore, you're #1.

RIP Mark Graham & WB Hutto
