Larger Population - Increased Mortality

With an increasing population there are more opportunities for loss of life.  Just as there are more deaths in a larger city than a smaller town the same has happened in Big Canoe.  In just 10 months there has been two accidental deaths and one by manslaughter.  This in addition to several deaths by natural causes which are expected since most of our population is past retirement age.  The latest accident happened just yards from our house when a gravel loaded dump truck turned over at downhill curve.
