The accident occurred on Friday April 4th at about 6:50 p.m. on state Highway 24 near mile marker 63 in Lincoln County.

Stephen Southwick was driving his Honda motorcycle eastbound on Highway 24 when he veered off the left side of the road. He then lost control, struck a barbed-wire fence and was thrown from the motorcycle, according to a news release issued Saturday by the Idaho State Police.

Police say it is unknown what caused him to veer off the roadway.

Southwick was transported by air ambulance to Saint Alphonsus Regional Medical Center in Boise. He was listed in critical condition Saturday evening.

I apologize for not having made it down to the hospital sooner. I will check in, in-person with you, but until then, if the family needs ANYTHING please call me. As the union president here in Boise I have some good contacts to assist in whatever your needs may be. And as a long time friend my thoughts and prayers are with Steve and the family.

Hi Steve and family, you are all in my prayers. Steve has done so many things that have helped me in my life that I don't know where to start. Just remember that a postive attitude is the most important thing to have for healing.

Steve, you where always there in the times I needed someone who could understand me better than others. You always listened to me and gave me words of wisdom and advice that I still remember and will never forget.

I still remember getting hugs from you in your "vest", kinda like hugging a brick wall some days. :-)

You are in my thoughts and prayers, as is the whole family.
