Severe US Marine injury with local ties

Joe Canary Jr. is the son of Temple alumni Joe Canary, grandson of former Temple High School Supt. L.T.Canary and Lawanna Canary Spurlock of Temple. He is the nephew of Glenda and Steve Canary.
Joe Jr. is a 20 year old US Marine who has been stationed in Afganistan for a few months. Last Thurs. he was hit by a land mine and lost both legs below the knee. He also has damage to one hand. He will be arriving today, Jan. 25th, at the Bethesda Hospital in Maryland to begin the long healing and rehab process.
I am asking you to send this message out. This young Marine and his family need  postive thoughts and prayers to deal with this tragedy.
