As a result he suffered burns over half of his body and faces a long, hard road to recovery. His daughter is expected to spend several weeks in the hospital but is stable. I'm sure many of you know Horny and know he's a great guy. Even though he's out on mil leave there will be many unforeseen expenses. A FundMe site has been set up to help the family. Links below have more information about the accident and a way to throw a couple of bucks their way.
