It has been a long few years as this has been done. I remember the day like it was today. Setting at that light thinking about my day and how long it was going to be with work to be done! And from out of no where my day changed again! The car up in the air and the sound of the crash I knew it was not good..I wacthed as the cars went around and around as I look to find another place to part,, As I jumped out of my truck on the phone at the same time with 911 I run through traffic not thinking of my own safety to a car on its side and on fire!! My concern was not the fire but the person driving this car to get them out if I was able!! With help from others I see a young man, I tell 911 we have one injury.. in seconds I relize another- I want to help so bad.. I look even more finding 2 more young people...It is not a site you wish too see but life takes you over more chanlleges everday.. I knew this was not good for these young people.. I can go on and on but the point is there was a life taken that day no matter whom it may have been. My wife my son my daughter my uncle and on and on. This young man died! Not pointing a gun at someones face or stabbing someone and taking a life. he died by himself and his friends and family are the only ones that knew him. I seen a young man that had lift that family and frineds and I hope and pray that he told his mom he loved her before he lift that moring for school! It started out just like any most morning for me. I think still about it today. This is just one of my lifes stories on seeing a life end in this way and I remember them all! Not the way I want to go. God bless the family and the friends that will remember him always.
