August, 6, 2008 will be the anniversary of six men's fate. It started out as just any other day but changed to a tragedy that took them away. The news media came from all around. As rescue holes were drilled in the ground. It brought the community together, as one should be. To pay their respects to all their family. Now those six men are buried in coal. Small Town Heroes, United as a Whole.
