Plan Reward for Little Hero Restored Vision in One Eye
A five year old Cherokee County boy, Donald Crowe, saved three sisters in a home fire and now needs a cornea transplant to restore sight in one eye. A fund set up through KOAM and the American Legion, with First National Bank as custodian, aims to cover medical tests and surgery. Donations come from across the region to aid the child and his large family, hoping for normal vision by next Christmas.
