The Oklahoma Highway Patrol reported an 88-year-old El Reno man was killed last week in an accident on I-40, just east of Radio Road.
OHP reports said a 1998 Ford F-150 driven by George Miller left the eastbound lanes of I-40 for an unknown reason. The vehicle struck a fence and came to rest in a ditch.
Miller was taken by Pafford Ambulance to OU Medical Center in Oklahoma City, but was pronounced deceased there.

MIDWEST CITY - Two momentum-turning calls, both going in favor of Carl Albert, put El Reno High School’s football team behind the proverbial eight ball in its seventh straight trip to the postseason.
Both calls would lead to 14 points for the top-ranked Titans and were part of a run of 42 unanswered points as Carl Albert defeated El Reno 49-21 in the bi-district round of the Class 5A playoffs.
The loss snaps a two-game win streak for El Reno and ends its season with a 6-5 record.

El Reno High School English teacher Brian Rukes outlined the plan to expand the monument to military veterans at Memorial Stadium during a program that followed the 12th Annual Canadian County Veterans Day Parade.
Organized by the El Reno Chamber of Commerce, the event was held inside the Centre Theatre and featured five Canadian County veterans who were honored as Veterans of the Year. They included Donald Eugene Clark, Ron Edmondson, Jerry Icenhower, Randy Reynolds and Ken Tarter.

El Reno’s Mobile Meals needs some volunteers.
The program that delivers meals to approximately 175 El Reno residents Monday through Friday needs a minimum of 75 volunteers each week, organizers said.
Recently, several long-term volunteers were forced to step away from their service due to health reasons and surgery. To continue serving, Mobile Meals has an urgent need for volunteer delivery drivers.
