this is a really sad, sad ending for this man who was struggling with his own demons...my husband and i had the privelage of getting to know this man at the worst time of his life..lewis told us he had left Wichita because he kept getting robbed and beaten up when he would get his disability check,he said the last time he was assaulted,he left wichita and just drove until he found a small town he could call home and be comfortable in..that town was Emporia..We would help him through his first month here by assisting him to find affordable housing and we went through our things to help him with his neccesities..and bought him food..we introduced him to the abundant harvest kitchen and the food pantry at the Salvation Army..my husband took him to SRS to apply for Food Stamps..my husband took him to the bank this past tuesday to get his rent money, only to find out that he was already overdrawn by overdraft fees and bank fees..he was a greatful man and was always so thankful for the help he could never sing enough praise...i am sorry though that we did not get any info on his family..he never talked about any...i hope someone,knows who they are...May He rest in peace..and move on to a better place..

I have every ounce of confidence that epd will find the person or persons who did this horrible thing.. and when it is publicized, we, the citizens of emporia need to start a petition to let the prosecuters know we want the maximum punishment,,no deals for this crime,, this is truly a tragic loss for the zoo,and for the emporia citizens and there are a lot of victims here..lets not let this crime be minimized....are you with me....

hey USNRETIRED__and WELTHA...we are building this range pretty darn similar to the NRA ranges...we will have the overhead baffle system commonly known as "NO BLUE SKY"
'I am pretty sure you are familiar with that..and for weltha,,we will have a real nice overhead canopy over the shooting areas so you won't get wet and melt...JK.We will have the target retrieval wheels so no one has to walk out on the range when it is hot...You will see this will be a fine facility..and we are looking forward to any input you guys may have...email me at lewisbailbonds@excite.com....we are aways open for suggestions....
