Tragic
Speed KILLS!!!! SLOW DOWN!!!!
That was the worst accident I’ve ever had to pass. The selfishness of one man killed a young man who was ready to start his life after high school. :(
Yes, I Joel made several bad choices that cannot be corrected. He chose to speed. He killed an innocent 18 year old man-his future is gone, taken away. And now his wife is in labor giving birth to their first child that will never know her father-she’ll never know her father arms and his voice when he whispered “I love you”. A lot of heartache and devastation came out of one choice. Those choices last a lifetime and then some.
It was a horrifying accident. We’re still in shock. Such a waste of life. Prayers are flooding towards the families.
Sad
People need to slow down. So incredibly sad.
yes they need to slow down but it was more than that…what was he on???
Tragic?
Beyond tragic! Such a waste
Avoidable “accident.” Remind young drivers bad stuff actually happens.
This is so sad. Why is everyone in such a hurry. Prayers for all the families. ?
A parents worst nightmare. I don’t know how You ever get rid of the anger that someone’s stupidity and recklessness took away your World! I have 4 boys and this is my biggest fear. I am so deeply saddened for this family.
You have to forgive to protect your spirit – It works
wasn’t my 18yr old but too soon to forgive…too fresh….so much pain both families and friends are enduring….no forgiving in the works for a while…worse thing you can say forgive and you will be ok….
I pray I am never in the position to have to.
I wish I had a choice – After the fact I do and I forgive – https://michellemarylinlittlefield.blogspot.com/
So very tragic. I did not know either of these two men but I beg people not to make judgements before all the facts are in and, even when they are, to remember that there are two families out there suffering terribly. Even if the BMW driver was grossly negligent in his actions, his family should not be punished by such negative comments. GOLDEN RULE.
Well said, Janet!
Yes I agree!! Not fair that the family has to read all this nasty comments.
their not reading this , they are drowning is so much sorrow….
I agree, being someone who just lost her mother to a tragic accident as well, regardless of “how” it happened or “why”, there is a family mourning the loss of their loved one and it is a terrible pain that you never truly will understand until it happens to you. ? People said all kinds of horrible things when my mother passed and it was heart wrenching
Cass ?? I love you girl!
No matter the choice or the mistake that was made, both families are suffering tremendously. Rude comments do not change the situation. Do you not think that Joel’s family is devistated by their loss? And just as devistated that another life was taken? Thank you to the people who are showing compassion to both families.
Very sad…?
Condolences to the families. This will make me slow down that is for sure.
My deepest condolences go out to his family ??
My condolences to both families. I’m so so sorry :'(
So glad I saw your posts… Both famlies lives changed for ever…. My heart is so heavy.
Yes they do, were you related?
Yes, deepest condolences to both families but particularly the innocent young man who lost his life because of the criminal behavior of another. Speeding at such high speeds is reckless and little regard for the lives of others. Sorry if this offends anyone but it needs to be said.
Karen Perdue yes yes yes ?
Sending prayers from all of us❤️??
Just a horrible sad tragedy. As a mom I hope to never ever have to go through that. Prayers of love and strength sent to the families.
So very terrible and to both families, I am so terribly sorry for your loss if your loved one. This is a pain that is so hard to endure and only God, prayers and the helpful hands of friends and family has been able to help me since I lost my mother in May. I know the pain and I will be praying for both families during the very tragic and sad time in their lives ❤?? It won’t be easy, and don’t be afraid to lean on others, but you will be OK eventually. Much love. ❤???
Very tragic. My heart goes out to both family.
