[S24] The Newport Plain Talk, (http://www.newportplaintalk.com), 25 Mar 2007. ... At the Kiwanis Club meeting last Tuesday, I heard Tip Brown mustering workers for the Feed My Sheep program. He mentioned that Daisy Crowder would not be able to help because her husband, Charlie, had been seriously injured. Later in the week, son Deputy David Crowder told me what happened. Charlie was doing some machining work on a vertical mill when a sleeve of his shirt got caught in the fast-turning tool. While it did not break his arm, it did chew into his flesh. He was taken to Veterans' Hospital in Johnson City for treatment. I saw Charlie with son, Tommy, on Friday, working at the old Carolyn Motel. His left arm was bandaged slowing Charlie down some. When the machine twisted him up, he eventually was able to put it into reverse and unwind his coverall sleeve to escape. In plain talk, people who love their work rarely slow down and often get tangled up in it at times.
