A three-vehicle accident investigated Monday resulted in injuries to two drivers, including one who later died at a Kansas City hospital.
According to an accident report submitted by Trenton Police Chief Rex Ross, the accident occurred shortly after 4 p.m. on Highway 6, just inside the west city limits. Seth Gibson of rural Trenton was the driver of a westbound truck that slowed due to a hay swather that was in front of it. Gibson said he saw in his rearview mirror a truck, driven by Gary R. Randolph of Trenton, which was approaching his vehicle from behind. Gibson said he braced for the impact, which occurred when Randolph’s truck struck his from behind. A second impact occurred when Randolph’s truck was hit from behind by a car driven by Lakota R. Curtis of Gallatin.
At the time of the accident, Randolph was able to talk with Chief Ross and was taken by ambulance to Wright Memorial Hospital. The police department was notified on Tuesday that he had passed away at a Kansas City hospital.
Gibson, who refused transport, complained of neck pain and it was noted that the seat in which he was sitting was broken due to the impact of the crash. Ms. Curtis complained of leg pain and was transported to Wright Memorial Hospital.
Chief Ross’ report indicates that tickets were pending in the accident.
In addition to the Trenton Police Department, the Grundy County Sheriff’s Office and the Trenton Fire Department responded to the scene.

Dream
• From Front Page • zie had been going through contacted local Dream Factory volunteer Ron Dougan, who got the ball rolling to help Mackenzie realize a dream of going to Disney World - and more importantly, having a time away from all things “cancer.”
The organization paid all expenses for the family to travel to Orlando, FL, where they stayed at Give Kids the World. The 89acre, nonprofit resort in Kissimmee, FL provides week-long, cost-free wish vacations to critically ill children and their families from around the world who visit Central Florida.
“Give Kids the World was really the best thing about the trip,” said Kylie, noting that the trip occurred in Jan. 2020 prior to the COVID-19 pandemic.
Even with meet-andgreets with princesses, Micky and Minnie, her beloved “Toy Story” friends and all the characters that make Disney Disney, it was the roller coasters that captured Mackenzie’s attention.
Life is back to “normal” now - at least as normal as it will be for awhile. Mackenzie is in remission but may have suffered organ and spleen damage. Her blood count has not come back up to normal, so while she will be a kindergarten student this fall, the family has opted to home school for now to keep her as safe as possible. Her energy level has returned to that of a typical five-year-old and the future looks promising. When the family looks back on these years somewhere down the road, they will remember how scared they were for their daughter and how difficult it was to watch her go through cancer treatments. But they will also remember how the Dream Factory gave them a priceless gift when they needed it most.
