Posted by Gary on 1/24/2005, 2:06 pm Mike Betts and Wife, Car Accident in Mansfield Playing in a Coed tournament today with the Seminoles, Mike Betts and Kari were on their way to the Championship Game. In a tragic turn of events, they were in a Head on Car Accident. Betts recieved only bumps and brusies. Kari passed away at 11pm Sat @ Harris Methodist Hospital in Ft. Worth. Please email me for information on Funeral and Visitation arraingements. Please keep Mike and his family in your thoughts and Prayers. Thank you, on behalf of Mike Betts and his SOFTBALL family. Thank You, {Frome Betts} Through this difficult time, Mike Betts would like to express a deep thanks & love to everyone that has given their respects to him and his family. (Jared) As soon as the details will be finalized, Betts will call me to post times and directions to the services. At this moment, Betts does not have a vehicle, so, along with Kyle Bagget & AJ, we will be driving him around DFW taking care of the details. I will have limited email access and I will not be at my office today. So, if you need to get a hold of me, please feel free to call my cell, 214-505-6942. I'd like to thank members of the Blue Thunder Team, Bring It, and the Seminoles co-ed team for helping Mike Betts and his family thru this ordeal the last 48 hours. I love all of you and everyone in the Softball Nation. A special thank you to Lary Adkins and Laurie Rutter for letting people stay at your home the last two days and giving Mike and everyone the support they need to get thru this difficult event. Replies: Per Mike Betts and Family. Kari Kelso Vittatoe Trust Fund All Funds will go directly to her children. This will be the only service for Kari. I know that SBW is throwing a big tournament this weekend and they charge gate fee, why not charge everyone this weekend with gate fee and donate to Mike & Kids Memorial Fund?.. Gary Reddin

Subject: Betts Tournament
It looks like we will have the tournament on the 12th and 13th of feb.
We have many sponsors who have given from the heart to make this a big tournament.
The tournament will be in McKinney at this time .
It could change.
We are looking for a company to give trophies if you have someone let us know.
We will have stuff for the kids to do at the park.
We know it's Valentine's Day weekend, but that is the only weekend that will work with all the other tournaments going on other weekends. Send us your team information, phone number of the coach. Please pass this email on.
