Randy Gillespie, the Cat5 racer for Team Mack who was involved in a crash at the Webster Groves Crit, passed away this morning.

We wish to extend our condolences to Randy's friends and family during this difficult time, and let them know that they will be kept in our thoughts and prayers.

Randy Gillespie, a Cat5 racer for Team Mack, was involved in a crash Sunday at the Webster Groves Crit.

He suffered a head injury and some broken bones, and has been in ICU all week. He has continued cranial swelling and a blood clot on his brain, and the doctors are watching him very carefully right now.

Since he is from Springfield, IL, his family is in St. Louis to be with him, and could use any assistance you might be able to provide, such as monetary donations as well as prayers and support.

Their family friend, Sarah Woodard, has offered to receive donations via PayPal on their behalf (PayPal money to sarahnwoodard at yahoo dot com).

Thanks for any support you can give to them during this important and difficult time.
