His wife Helen was standing nearby and called 911 and a helicopter arrived shortly and carried him to Gwinnett County Medical Center in Lawrenceville. He was unconscious a while and they found a broken collarbone, several broken ribs, and foot damage. At the time of this printing he was more alert. His health was already bad, now the extra pain. Sonny grew up at Phillips Mill Baptist Church, a son of the late Henry and Myrtis Ogletree Callaway. His wife is the former Helen Martin of Lincoln County. They are blessed to have all their children and grandchildren nearby. Your prayers will be greatly appreciated. .Tyler Scarborough enjoyed having one of his school friends, Brandon Saggus, to spend Friday night with him.
