NEW E-MAIL ADDRESS AT WHICH FANS CAN REMEMBER ERIC MEDLEN
Sun, 2007-03-25 19:19
BP/Castrol, which established a special e-mail address for get well messages
while Eric Medlen was fighting for his life, has set up a new address at which
fans and friends can offer condolences to the family of the professional race
car driver, who succumbed to his injuries last Friday.
Fans can leave their messages at goodbyeeric@castrol.com. Those
messages will be assembled, printed and placed in a scrapbook that will be
presented to the family.
Medlen, 33, suffered severe head injuries when his Funny Car crashed
during routine testing last Monday at Gainesville (Fla.) Raceway. He underwent
a successful cranjectomy procedure on Tuesday, but his other major organs began
to fail shortly thereafter due to the trauma.
Services for the six-time NHRA POWERade tour winner will be held at 10
a.m. Wednesday at Connection Pointe Christian Church, 1800 N. Green Street, in
Brownsburg.
