On February 27, 2017, my coach, my best friend, my brother was hit and severely injured by an erratic driver. This accident has left him paralyzed from the chest down and may never walk again. Hearing about the news of the accident was not easy to digest but with many prayers and positive thoughts, I know healing is declared in Jesus' name.
I remember the first time we met back in 2012 at my district track meet at Nelson County High School in Virginia. He walked up to me as cool as a cucumber and dapped me up like he had known me for years. From that moment, it was like everything else fell into place. I could feel God living through him, I could feel that genuine spirit, I could feel the friendship that was about to transpire. Coach O was without a doubt a light for me and everyone he came in contact with.
Again, words can't describe how thankful I am for Coach O and there isn't enough time in the day to tell you all of our crazy stories. I know that I don't have much to give but I hope to use my photography web site and resources that I have to make sure Coach receives all of the support he needs as he begins his journey.
If you have Facebook, I encourage you to take a few seconds to head over and like his support page (see links below). There, you can view updates on his progress, read stories about how he has touched people's lives, and see countless photos! If you have some cash to spare, please consider donating to help Coach and his family as well.
Please continue to pray and send positive thoughts to the Olinger family! We're in this together. #FaithFocusFinish #BrittenStrong
