Carter family,

I work with Mike at Swepco... he is a tremendous person. The beauty of working there is that everyone I have ever come in contact with there treats you like family! That is a very rare thing. Please know that part of our family was in that truck and we are all praying for him. I know this must be just more than you can bear, but please know that God has a reason for these things. Just keep believing that Mike will pull through this and live to fight another storm!
