Tony Fontes Jeep Accident
A jeep, a log, and a hard landing — Tony Fontes's closest call came on four wheels, not four hooves.
While living at French Camp as caretaker for George Gamboa, Tony Fontes was quite badly hurt while riding with Don Stiles in his jeep. The jeep hit a log and overturned, throwing Tony out. He suffered severe cuts on his head and nearly lost the sight of his eye. He was many weeks in the King City hospital where they managed to save his vision.
