Louisville, KY (December 1, 2017) – Butler County’s Jarrod Carathers performed before a live audience during the November 30 general session of  Kentucky Farm Bureau’s (KFB) 98th annual meeting in Louisville. Winner of both the Butler County and District 3 preliminary contests, Carathers was one of 11 acts invited to perform at the state Variety Showcase.

What started out as a regular day in Tina Porter’s life; a regular dinner, regular conversations, regular daily shower..etc.,; changed her life forever. Even though this particular day, she still didn’t realize she was getting ready to start a journey that would rock her world in the fall of 2009.

We would like to thank everyone for the food, texts, phone calls, cards, and most importantly your prayers over the last several months.  Words can't express how grateful we are.  Continue to pray for our family as we adjust to life without our sweet boy.
