CLAY MOTHER AND CHILD'S FUNERAL TODAY - Died After Tuesday Accident |
| (04/02/2004) |
| Yesterday morning a split second error in driving on a rain soaked road took the life of Cathy Fitzwater Adkins and her
3 year old daughter Rachel. Both young and pretty and with bright futures. The news saddened our community and
gave many a reason to pause and rethink their day. Such stories aren't fun. Funeral services are scheduled today for a Clay County woman and her daughter, killed in an auto accident on rain-slick Route 4. Kathryn Dawn Adkins, 24, and her daughter, Rachel Elizabeth Adkins, 3, of Maysel died Tuesday multiple injuries.
