There is no easy way to post bad news like this, but for those of you have attended or participated in ProgDay over the years, the festival has suffered a devastating loss. Sarah and MaryAnne Tatum were in a fatal car accident a few days ago. Sarah did not survive and MaryAnne is still in very serious condition. Those of you who have attended ProgDay would know the Tatum twins as the two little blond girls who started working behind the merch table when they were just little kids. We literally saw them grow up year after year behind the table helping out Peter Renfro. Over the years we saw them go from bright young kids to beautiful young college students. Their father David was a ProgDay regular attending just about every year.
A Go Fund Me account has been set up at the following link: http://www.gofundme.com/r2ugw8
The money raised through this fund raising effort will go to help the family pay MaryAnne's upcoming medical expenses as well as help them out with everything else they may be dealing with. I challenge the ProgDay family to donate what they can to help the Tatum family out.
