At
a happier time Hazel and Richmond Flowers enjoyed a NUMBA function.
They were killed Thursday 6/11/2009 in a head on collision in
the northbound lanes of Interstate 65 near Frankfort Indiana state
police said. Troopers responded to the crash near the exit ramp
to state road 28 just after 4 p.m.
Investigators said a woman traveling southbound on I-65, for an
unknown reason, drove through the median and struck a northbound
car head on, sending both vehicles into the guard rail. The passenger
in the south bound car, Richmond Flowers, 80 of Cincinnati was
pronounced dead at the scene. His wife Hazel Fields Flowers, 83
who was driving at the time was transported to Clarion Hospital
in Lafayette where she later died.
