The
mother and father of Market Street's popular Store Manager Alan
Barron were both killed in a tragic auto accident in Ropesville,
Texas on Tuesday. Also in the vehicle were Barron's wife,
and two children, his sister and a nephew.
Lubbock newspapers reported that Alan Barron's father, Lawrence
Barron, 68, of Lubbock died Tuesday night from injuries suffered
hours earlier in the accident outside of Ropesville on U.S.
62/82. His mother, Patsy Barron died at the scene of the
accident that occurred around 4 p.m. She was not wearing a
safety belt according to reports from the Department of Public
Safety.
Alan had flown back earlier to return to work in Colleyville. |
The accident involved a Suburban
driven by the sister of Alan Barron, Debra Campbell in
Ropesville (indicated by star on above), near Lubbock, Texas. |
DPS
Officers stated that Debra Campbell said she fell asleep at the
wheel and woke up when the vehicle went off the road, then she
over-corrected causing the Suburban to flip over two times.
Lawrence Barron was flown by helicopter to a Lubbock hospital
and was pronounced dead at 7:32 pm. |
Alan Barron's mother and father were two
of the five passengers in a Chevrolet Suburban driven by 44-year old
Debra Campbell of Lubbock. Also in the Suburban were Alan's wife,
Denise Barron, 36 and his two children, Braxton Barron - 5 and Natalie
Barron -2. All three were taken to Covenant Medical Center in Lubbock
and listed in satisfactory condition. LNO has learned that all
three are expected to be released today.
Also in the vehicle was Zachary Campbell - 18, the son of Debra Campbell
and Alan Barron's nephew. He was seriously injured and has already
undergone surgery. Initial reports indicated that Zachary Campbell
may have had some paralysis but his condition appears to be improving.
According to DPS officials, the Suburban veered off the highway, the
driver then over-corrected, steering the car back onto the
roadway. The vehicle spun 180 degrees then rolled over twice and
finally landed on the driver's side. The driver, Debra Campbell,
told troopers she fell asleep at the wheel and awoke when the vehicle
left the highway.
Funeral services from Mr. and Mrs. Barron are scheduled for 3 p.m.
Friday at the Southcrest Baptist Church, 3801 South Loop 289 in
Lubbock. Rest Haven Funeral Home in Lubbock are in charge of
arrangements.
