Winter Driving - Please use Caution

The ISP called me this morning to assist with a next of kin notification. A woman the same age as my wife was driving too fast on new snow and ice. No seat belt. She lost control, slid off the road and rolled the car. She was thrown out of the car and it rolled over her killing her instantly. It took us 3 hours to find her daughter. Poor girl has a new 2 month old baby and a live in boyfriend with no family in the area. All she could say through the tears was that the last time she saw her Mom they fought and she left angry.

Life is short my friends. Don't hurry the end by being foolish on snow. Respect those you love.

Please be careful. Bud (Idaho)

We need to remember things can change in an instant. We are all just penciled in.

it's weird how it seems that when a child is born in a family another family member departs

That's the ebb and flow of life Beezer. I can't stop thinking about this poor young gal. I know that she has made some bad decisions, shacking up with a guy who does not want to marry her but wants all of the benefits of her bed, but she is in for hard times. Her name is Ashley. Please say a prayer for her.
