[Bekki]

Mike Patterson the selfless hero who became paralyzed after diving
into a storm swollen Euharlee Creek in Georgia to push out 4-year-old Javaeh Jones has died.

Sadly just 3 weeks after he selflessly put his life on the line to save the 4 year old toddler
Mike Patterson has lost his. He had become paralyzed during the rescue,
and now, just a few short weeks later
His noble sacrifice, has become the ultimate sacrifice.

He past away in an Atlanta, Ga. hospital surrounded by Family and friends.
Rest well Mike. You are a true hero. I salute you

Bekki.

A few tears of respect and hope just rolled down reading this and thinking about it.

I hope he rests well, he's set an example few will ever be able to follow.
