LARGE SELECTION
ola man dies in accident
BY ROSEMARY SMITH

A one-vehicle accident
with a tree has taken a sec-
ond life within a month’s
time in Grimes County.
David Norman Beabey
of Iola, 60, was south-
bound on FM 244 when
his 2002 Ford pickup left
the wet roadway and
struck a tree last Wednes-
day, according to Depart-
ment of Public Safety
Trooper Richard Cook of
Anderson.
Precinct 2 Justice of the
Peace Joe Imhoff pro-
nounced the plant worker
dead at the scene at 8:35
p.m., an hour after the ac-
cident occurred about six
miles north of Anderson.
The body was trans-
ported to Nobles Funeral
Chapel in Navasota.
In a separate location
on July 14, Robert Lee
Shurley of Onalaska, 51,
was killed after his 2007
Ford van left a northbound
lane, off US Highway 90,
and struck a tree within the
Town of Anderson city
limits. DPS Public Infor-
mation Officer Jimmy
Morgan said S hurley had a
history of seizures, which
is believed to be the cause
of the collision.
Both men were wearing
a seatbelt at the time of
their respective accidents.

Jaylen Jamar Mable passed away on August 18, 2013. He
was the son of Clarissa Mable and Christen “Jacolby” Stokes,
both NHS Graduates. Jaylen was born with a rare genetic
disorder called Propionic Acidemia. His liver had an inactive
enzyme that could not break down protein. This inability
causes a build-up of harmful substances that can cause
damage to the person’s heart, liver, brain, and bones.
As the family prepares to bury their son, grandson, nephew,
please pray that God gives them strength, peace, and
comfort.
#TEAM JAYLEN
Jaylen did not have insurance due to being denied because
of his health condition. In lieu of flowers, if you would like to
help the family by making monetary donations, they can be
made at Wells Fargo with Elva Evans.
All donations will go towards Jaylen’s funeral expenses. Any
remaining balance will be used towards a scholarship to a
NISD student pursuing an education in the medical field to
help children like Jaylen.
