Just this past Tuesday, we had one of the
warmest days, almost beating the record.
Our friend, was killed on his motorcycle.
One of our employees sold him the motor
cycle last year against his better
judgement. It has been terrible around
here. The guys don't want to work, and my
husband walks around like a zombie. We
have to pass by where the accident
happened to get any place.
He leaves his parents who lived with him,
not the other way around. He was building
an addition on his home for him and his
new wife. He worked full time during the
day, cleaned offices at nite and
volunteered as a fireman. He also loved
SPEED. He wasn't happy unless he was
tearing up the gears, whether it be a car
or a motorcycle.
Please, please to all, drive carefully.
You don't need to tear up the roads.
Granted, it was a beautiful unseasonably
warm day, and the thought of taking out
the bike was a thrill. He left work at
5:30 and was dead 15 minutes later. They
had our street blocked off and we never
even gave it a thought that someone we
know and care about is laying dead at the
end of it. Tonite is the viewing. My
husband has left already. He called to
tell me he will be a while as the line to
the funeral parlor is out the door. This
young man did nothing wrong. He came up
over the hill and was slammed into by a 27
year old DRUNK female. He was thrown 20
feet in the air. His cousin was behind him
and saw the whole thing. I really don't
know where i was going with this. Just to
remind everyone to please slow down.
Nothing is worth your life. Exept our
children. We should never take things for
granted, and try to be kind and
understanding as we never know when we
will leave this world leaving so many
broken hearts behind.

I know how you feel Posted: 03-12-08 11:16am
Hi! I lost a very close cousin and a best
friend, both in car accidents within two
years. I hate the feeling of not having
any hope of seeing them again or being
around them. I have dreams in which I tell
them how much I miss them and how
surprised and happy I am to see them and
that they are BACK again (I dream as if
they were gone but came back).
