    With profound sadness and heavy hearts, we remember Dodge Michael Harris, 22, of Mountain Home, a young life whose journey was tragically cut short far too soon. His passing has left behind a heartbreaking emptiness for his family, friends, and everyone who had the privilege of knowing him.

    Dodge’s life came to a devastating end Friday night following a single-vehicle crash on the Sheid-Hopper Bypass. According to the Arkansas State Police, the crash occurred at approximately 8:56 p.m. after the vehicle he was driving failed to negotiate a curve, entered the median, and overturned after returning to the westbound lanes. Dodge was ejected and suffered fatal injuries.

    While the circumstances of his passing are deeply painful, they cannot define the beautiful life he lived. Behind the heartbreaking news was a 22-year-old with dreams still ahead of him, memories still waiting to be made, and people who loved him deeply. His absence will be felt in countless ways—in familiar places, quiet moments, shared memories, and in the hearts of those who will forever wish they could hear his voice or see his smile one more time.

    For his loved ones, the days ahead may feel unbearably difficult. Yet Dodge’s memory will remain a lasting light. The moments shared with him, the laughter, conversations, kindness, and memories created together will never truly disappear.

    May his family and friends find strength and comfort in one another during this unimaginable loss. Though Dodge may no longer walk beside those who loved him, his memory will remain forever etched in their hearts.

    Forever remembered. Forever cherished. Forever loved. Forever missed.

His life, filled with years of memories, experiences, relationships, and moments that shaped the people around him, will forever remain a meaningful part of the lives he touched.

    To his closest friends, AJ was more than a friend—he was a brother.

    Though AJ’s life was heartbreakingly short, the love he gave and the memories he created will never disappear. His voice may be silent, but the stories about him will continue to be told. His laughter will live on in the memories of those who knew him. His friendship will remain a part of the lives he touched.

    Rest peacefully, AJ. You were deeply loved, truly treasured, and will never be forgotten.

    Gone from our sight, but never from our hearts. Rest easy, brother.

    Number 50 on the Field, Forever Number One in So Many Hearts.

    Some goodbyes are never supposed to happen. Some lives are taken far too soon, leaving behind a silence that words can never truly fill. Today, the community of Levelland mourns the heartbreaking loss of Deven Ponce, a young man whose life touched more hearts than he may have ever realized.

    To the Lobos, Deven was proudly known as Number 50. He battled in the trenches on both offense and defense, giving everything he had beneath the Friday night lights. But his greatest legacy was never measured in tackles, sacks, or statistics. It was measured in the people who loved him.

    Deven was a son, a friend, a teammate, a classmate, and someone whose presence brought memories that will now be treasured forever. The photographs shared after his passing are more than pictures—they are pieces of a life that people desperately wish they could hold onto.

    His family is left with an unimaginable emptiness. His friends are left remembering conversations, laughter, inside jokes, and ordinary moments that suddenly mean everything. His teammates are left with the memories of standing shoulder-to-shoulder with him, knowing they were part of something he gave his heart to.

    The football field will continue to have Friday night lights, but for those who knew Deven, something will always feel missing.

    Number 50 will never be just a number again. It will be a reminder of Deven.

    May his family find strength in knowing how deeply he was loved. May his friends continue telling his stories. And may his memory live on every time someone speaks his name.

    Rest peacefully, Deven Ponce. 🕊️💔

    You were here for far too short a time, but you left behind a lifetime of memories.

    The Greene County community is mourning the heartbreaking loss of Timothy W. Graham, 77, of Columbia City, and his beloved wife, Carol A. Graham, whose lives were tragically taken in a devastating crash on Interstate 69 on Saturday morning, August 29, 2026.

    The couple was traveling along southbound I-69 near mile marker 93 in the Scotland area when a collision involving their truck and an unoccupied semi being used for a construction project changed everything in an instant. Despite the efforts that followed, Timothy and Carol could not be saved. Their passing leaves behind an immeasurable emptiness for everyone who knew and loved them.

    The crash also seriously injured a 29-year-old Fort Wayne construction worker, who was transported by medical helicopter to Eskenazi Hospital in Indianapolis. Behind every tragic accident are families, friends, and loved ones whose lives are forever changed by a single heartbreaking moment.

    Timothy and Carol will be remembered not for the circumstances of their passing, but for the lives they lived, the memories they created, and the love they shared. A lifetime together cannot be measured by the final moment—it is found in countless ordinary days, cherished conversations, shared laughter, and memories that remain long after someone is gone.

    As family and friends grieve, may they find comfort in knowing that Timothy and Carol’s lives mattered deeply. May the memories of their love bring warmth during the darkest days, and may their legacy continue through every person whose life they touched.
