Sikeston man dies, Cape Girardeau woman seriously injured in Sunday morning crash

Tuesday, October 13, 2009

FESTUS, Mo. -- A Sikeston, Mo., man was killed and a Cape Girardeau woman seriously injured in a Sunday morning crash at U.S. 67 and Meyer Road in Jefferson County.

According to the Missouri State Highway Patrol, the accident occurred around 8:40 a.m. as a 1999 Honda Civic driven by Benjamin T. Warf, 21, of Sikeston, made a left turn into the path of a 2008 Dodge Caliber driven by Kalya N. Harrison, 20, of Festus. The front of the Caliber then struck the left side of the Civic.

Warf was transported by ambulance to Jefferson Regional Medical Center in Crystal City, Mo., where he was pronounced dead at 9:33 a.m. The passenger in the Civic, Jessica L. Holloway, 19, of Cape Girardeau, was in serious condition.

Harrison and three female passengers in the Caliber sustained moderate injuries.

My "Schwann's" man carrier is a best friend of Benjamin Warf. This made this young man's death very personable to me. My heart goes to his family and to the family of the the young lady who was also in the car. She has my prayers for a speedy recovery, although I know it will be a struggle. The best friend was distraught, and my prayers go also to him. We never know when we will meet our Maker, all we can do it try to be ready.
