Lagrange has come to believe that 13 is his lucky number after he was in a motorcycle crash that nearly cost him his life. His wreck was at 9:13 p.m., he lost 13 pounds, there were 13 dollars and 13 cents in his billfold and he did not get to return home for 13 weeks. (Times photo: Marissa Weiher)
MONROE - After a serious motorcycle crash at the age of 59, one might expect motorcyclist Chuck Lagrange to quit riding. Four years later, though, the South Wayne retiree continues to ride, hoping to help other people in the process. Lagrange's accident took place on July 22, 2012, as he was riding through Hazel Green on the way to New Diggings.
