Present: 	Judges Kelsey, Petty and Senior Judge Bumgardner
RONALD BLUEFORD AND CHRISTINE SAMPSON/
HOWARD FUNERAL HOME
MEMORANDUM OPINION*
v. 	Record No. 0116-07-1 	PER CURIAM
OCTOBER 23, 2007
ULYSSES C. WISE, SR.
FROM THE VIRGINIA WORKERS’ COMPENSATION COMMISSION
(Richard B. Donaldson, Jr.; Jennifer L. Muse; Jones, Blechman,
Woltz & Kelly, P.C., on brief), for appellants.
(Jamie L. Karek; Geoffrey R. McDonald & Associates, P.C., on
brief), for appellee.
Ronald Blueford and Christine Sampson/Howard Funeral Home (hereinafter referred to
as “employer”) appeal a decision of the Workers’ Compensation Commission finding that
Ulysses C. Wise, Sr. proved he sustained a compensable injury by accident while working for
employer on October 3, 2004. We have reviewed the record and the commission’s opinion and
find that this appeal is without merit. Accordingly, we affirm for the reasons stated by the
commission in its final opinion. See Wise v. Ronald Blueford and Christine Sampson/Howard
Funeral Home, VWC File No. 223-09-50 (December 12, 2006). We dispense with oral argument
and summarily affirm because the facts and legal contentions are adequately presented in the
materials before the Court and argument would not aid the decisional process. See Code
§ 17.1-403; Rule 5A:27.
Affirmed.
