Highlighting the history of The Crumley House
LIMESTONE, Tenn. (WJHL) – For 34 years, The Crumley House has been a beacon of hope, shining on the families of those whose loved ones experienced a traumatic brain injury. 'Nobody is ever prepared to be in an automobile accident or to take a fall and it's just something where you don't know who it will happen to or when,' Guynn Edwards, Executive Director of The Crumley House, said. Edwards joined the team just five months after its inception. He told News Channel 11 about the house's history, saying it all started with 14-year-old Lori Beth Ford, whose life was forever changed following a car accident. 'It started with a tragic accident,' Edwards said. 'Our founder, June Barrett, and her daughter experienced an automobile accident and Lori Beth had a terrible brain injury at the time.' Lori Beth was in the hospital for 14 months in the early 1980s, spending most of that time in a coma, according to Edwards. Tragedy turned to activism once her family realized the great need in the region for rehab, specifically aimed at helping people recover after a serious brain injury. 'June's husband Steve, who is still on our board of directors, decided to create a place where people could come and afford to come,' Edwards said. In the early 1990s, the wheels started turning on what would soon become The Crumley House we know today. 'We started with about 11 members and from there, we realized our day program was great but we had so many people who didn't have a place to stay,' Edwards said. The home was established in 1992 in Johnson City. It was eventually moved to a new facility in Limestone in 1999 for more space and the ability to open to live-in residents in addition to the day program. The Crumley House has been open ever since, changing the lives of people all over our region and beyond. Edwards told News Channel 11 they've served people from 11 different states and even two foreign countries. The non-profit started as a way of finding resources for one little girl and has turned into a crucial part of life for countless individuals who have also suffered a traumatic brain injury (TBI). The Crumley House is a non-profit and one of its biggest fundraisers of the year is Saturday, March 22. The Joggin' for the Noggin 5k and pancake breakfast starts at 10 a.m. at 300 Urbana Road.
