On June 16, 1963 George Simbides , his friend Ed Shutt, along with Georges two children Pat, and Jimmy, went to a horse show in Webster county. No one could have imagined how that day would change their families lives forever.

Three are killed and two injured as cars collide in WEBSTER CITY, IA.  Three Iowans were killed early Sunday morning when the car they were riding in collided with another 10 Miles northwest of Webster City. Dead are George Simbides 36, his son James, 10 and Edward E. Shutt, 22, the driver, all of Marshalltown. The injured in the accident were Simbides daughter Patty 9, and Gary Randall 18, of rural Highview, driver of the other car. Both are in a Webster City hospital and listed in fair condition, according to Hamilton County Sheriff E. R. Lear. Lear said late Sunday that he had not determined the cause of the collision. John Faulkner of Marshalltown, Shutts father in law, was driving ahead of the Shutt car in a truck loaded with horses from the sale. Lear said that when Faulkner reached Webster City and noticed the Shutt car was not following him, he returned to the accident scene.
