A Lamar County man suffering from injuries sustained in a house fire passed away this week at Grady Memorial Hospital in Atlanta. As reported two weeks ago, a fire completely destroyed a home at 186 Bowen Road in Milner, on the Lamar and Pike County line. When firefighters and sheriff’s deputies responded to the scene, the home was already fully involved in the fire. Resident Gregory Bell, age 61 was immediately transported to Grady Hospital in Atlanta, where he has been in treatment since. Bell passed away Tuesday in Atlanta.
