    Default nascar legend cale yarborough not doing well

    I'm not sure how many older nascar fans are on here, but I grew up a Cale Yarborough fan and I saw a few days ago that he is fighting a rare geneteic disorder which doesn't have a cure, and is in a wheelchair and isn't doing good, his family is asking for prayers

    Cale was a tough one. He’s been battling this illness for several months now. Last I heard he’s confined to a wheel chair and very uncomfortable. Prayers for him and his family.

    Which one? I went to school with all 3 of them. Was good friends with the middle. The oldest was in my sister's class.

    Growing up in Timmonsville, you couldnt NOT know them.

    He was a heck of a guy to all of us kids and Mrs. Betty Jo treated us all like we were her own. Spent many a day being pulled behind that ski nautique.

    Prayers to him and all the family.

    Gods limo driver asked for some time off to hunt deer so God called home the next best thing. Entirely possible he steps out the car to whip two demons' ass at the same time.
