June 2012 Weddings

Oh my word......HORRIBLE!!

So my mom just called me.  We have a man in our church (well a couple) who drives at truck at night, delivering auto glass.  

Well, apparently last night, my friend was driving through a small town (no street lights)  and felt a bump on the road.   He stoped, got out and looked back and it was a man!!  A MAN!!  MY FRIEND RAN OVER A MAN!  AND KILLED HIM!!  Apparently, there is video that shows the man was laying in the road before.....the incient.  I guess he was only a few feet from the center of the road.  I don't know why that man was in the middle of the road....but how aweful!!  He was only 52!!

I am just in shock right now.  My friend is just the nicest, kindest man you would want to meet.  I'm sure the family would appreciate your thoughts and prayers!!

  • I have a relative that committed suicide that way. He knelt in front of a truck. I know the driver was a wreck, no matter how much my relatives told him it was not his fault. Prayers for your friend to move passed this.

  • Oh my goodness. I am so sorry for your friend. Thoughts and prayers for him and his family. As well as the family of the man in the road.
  • So, is your friend the truck driver or is the now deceased man the truck driver?

    I certainly am going to pray for him and his family and the family of the man. How sad....

  • Oh that's so sad.  This happened to a girl in my graduating class at college a few years ago.  She apparently jumped out in front of an 18-wheeler on a highway by our school.  She was on the lacrosse team with my roommate (now a BM) and so it was really hard because we sorta knew her and noone saw it coming.

    Prayers going out to all sides involved.
