Joe Schweitzer was working out at a local gym on the evening of June 24th, 2015.

My Story: Ryan Radermacher
Ryan Radermacher knew something was wrong. It was a hot, muggy day, but not enough to cause heavy sweating. Ryan had been repairing equipment and getting things in order for the upcoming harvest. He was working hard, but nothing to strenuous. Ryan also felt some pressure in his chest and his arm was aching.
