A father and daughter involved in an all-terrain vehicle wreck earlier this week have died.
Kenneth Galmore, 39, and his daughter, Daija, 12, were visiting cousins on County Road 309 when they decided to take an ATV out for a spin, according to family members. Who was driving the ATV when it crashed head-on into a tree is unknown.
Galmore was unresponsive when paramedics arrived although Daija had some consciousness. Both suffered brain injuries. The two were taking to Baptist Memorial Hospital-North Mississippi and then quickly flown out by medical helicopters. Galmore was taken to The Med in Memphis and Daija was taken to Le Boehner’s children’s hospital, also in Memphis. The father and daughter were placed on life support.
Kenneth Galmore’s funeral has been set for 10:30 a.m. Saturday at New Hope Missionary Baptist Church in Batesville, with burial following in New Hope Cemetery. Serenity-Martin Funeral Home of Oxford is in charge of arrangements.
I was “Lost For Words” when I heard of the two of u leaving this world soo soon, Ken u left behind children that love u more than life itself,and Jennifer’s HEART is very Heavy, because u were her everything! Daiji, Kayla and Kentrell Miss u Much. Rest in Peace. On another note Ken I would like you to know u were the BEST handyman money could buy. No matter how much my mom and I fussed at u, u always blocked out what we had to say, nd stayed RESPECTFUL only if we could have fussed at u the day this tragic accident happened. My your heart be with God, while memories of the two of u remain here with us.
My mother and I will continue to raise Kayla and Kentrell and look after Jen. Love Always the LeFlore’s.
Rest In Peace Daija…I Love Yhu So Much!
i cant belive my friend is gone but she’s in a better place now!!!
God has called two more Angels to come on home to sit by his side. When I called my best friend Arlene just to say hello and to see how the kids were doing, I had no clue that they were going through such a tragdey. My family will continue to pray your family in your time of need.
