On 27 August 2009 our good friend and colleague was involved in a dirt bike accident that left him hospitalized with a spinal cord injury. At this time, we don't know what the outcome will be. We do know, however, that he needs our thoughts and prayers as he goes through what is certain to be a long recovery. Thore is a strong, positive person with an outstanding outlook on life. If anyone can overcome this setback, Thore can!
