1. I have always known about that tragic day when Roller Derby lost a lot of the Roller Derby family but I did not know all the details in your story, “The Day the Roller Derby Almost Stopped”. Thank you for sharing this with us as it is a part of Roller Derby history.

2. I heard a year or so ago from Mrs. Thomas, the 2nd wife of the bus driver…..she said he was depressed his entire life and never got over it…..a shame, another life destroyed by the crash.
