Allegan County Truck Accident
An Allegan County truck accident has left an area pastor dead. The accident occurred on November 21, 2008, at the intersection of 142nd Avenue and 38th Street in Overisel Township when the minivan failed to stop at a stop sign and collided with a tractor trailer semi truck. Rev. Jeff Voorhees, pastor from Drenthe Christian Reformed Church, was pronounced dead at the scene of the accident while the truck driver was trapped inside his truck, which caught on fire due to the accident, but made it out with minor burns and bruises. Slick roads due to snow appear to be the main cause of the accident.
It is always sad when someone dies in a car accident, but it is especially devastating when a pillar of the community is taken. I extend my sympathies to the Voorhees family and to the members of Drenthe Christian Reformed Church.
Michigan No Fault insurance can greatly assist a family at a time like this. A No Fault survivor loss claim can provide this man’s estate with assistance in paying for the funeral and can provide his family with payments for loss of support, such as lost wages, and payments for loss of the value of his contribution to the chores of the household. An experienced Michigan truck accident lawyer can help assemble a No Fault claim and ensure the family can worry about more important things while still getting the full amount of benefits.
