Last night my mom was going down the road and saw a very bad wreck..a silverado head on into a semi.
This morning i get on the bus check my voice mail. I get a voice mail saying that my friend died in a car accident yesterday. Head on with a semi.
He was trying to pass on a two lane highway, the guy infront of him kept speeding up every time he tried to pass...the last time he tried to beat him...wasnt looking ahead...and smack..killed instantly
estimated speed at impact..about 90 the truckw as goin 70.
Its shocking..i was talking to him yesterday now hes dead..Nobody is ever going to see him while there alive.
And some got there ***** kiked..some kid in my strength training class said he hoped he died a horrible death.. IS WRONG WITH PEOPLE....
Im at a loss for words.

Very sorry to hear the news. Its a real shame, especially when it was totally avoidable. The other driver should have just let up.
As for the kid in your class, well, I'm sure he'll get his in the end. Immaturity and insensitivity, nothing else. Just trying to be a badass.
Just remember the good times.
If anything can come out of it, it would have to be learn from it. Be there for his family, you probably mean more to them at this time than you think.

I've lost several good friends over the years.
On the day I graduated High School (many, many years ago) one of my friends was heading home from a party, and ran off the road, right in front of the High School, hit a telephone pole and was killed instantly.
His life had just started.
But, life is NOT fair. Far from it.
The only thing I can say to console you is to remember the good times. The laughs, the jokes and doing things together that meant something to you.
I lost a really good friend on August 22. Massive heart attack. I had known this man for over 30 years. He had just left the doctor's office and was going to drive himself two blocks, to the hospital. He died behind the wheel, in the parking lot. He was slumped down in the seat of his truck for about 6 hours before the police found him.
I can still see his face. He touched a LOT of lives. He not only made work fun, he helped raise thousands of dollars every year, for charity. He drove an ambulance for his local fire department and was an EMT. He always had a smile on his face.
IF you needed help, he didn't say that he'd try to be there. He WAS there.
(I ramble on, terribly. I apologize.)
Me and him werent best friend but we knew eachouther..
Its really shockijng for my mom..afterall she saw the crash happen. I didnt tell her til last night and i probably shouldnt now that i think of it..
Sorry to hear about it Anthony. Things will come to be better. I lost my best friend in 10th grade due to a boating accident, I had seen him the previous day and that is the last thing you would ever think of happening. Just be there for the family, it'll mean more to them than you'll ever know. Again, I'm sorry to hear about your loss. I wish the best.
I almost lost a friend 2 years ago. Freak accident. He was tightening to tow cable on the boom of his tow truck that he was selling. The hook broke. and the cable came winging around and through the open cab window and struck him in the head. What saved him was he was leaned over shut the power take off off.
Well his injury was serious for he ripped a large section of his scalp and server 7 large vessels that are on the side of the head. He had a stroke from the blood loss. He has been off work since. He still has jis inteligence on doing stuff or fixing things. He helped build a fence with me this summer, But his thought waves have blanks spots. He tires quite easily, so he is unable to do a full days work. He has lost his smile and humor. He was always joking and laughing before that. Now his marriage is on the skids. His wife and him separated twice now for short periods. At the time of the accident they were married only 6 months and bought a house. Now this can all be lost.
So I try to be there to help him when I can, but it is difficult as a friend,not knowing how to help. But I do the best I can and that is what your friends family needs from you now. Help where you can, by helping with things that need fixing around the home, or take the kids to appoinments etc.
Til his family can take care of themselves again.
One of my wifes friend lost her 15 year old son in a car crash. He lied to her about goingto a church function, and actually went to a friends house. When his friend was bringing him home (lonely country roads), They went through a stop sign. Didn't see the car coming from the cross street with no stop sign,and they got broadsided. This happened less than a mile from his home. his mom heard the ambulances and life flight. After hearing the sirens, she called her sons cell phone, and since there was no answer, she knew before the police came and told her. About the only good thing was that the force of the crash was so great, he died instantly. Sometimes my son also 15 says he can feel somebody watching him even they weren't the best of friends.
Yep but that type of accident happens to everybody in Highschool. My mom was in a car with a couple of friends and got severly injured. I think the otheres in the car died..but she never talks about it. It involved alchol and somone else driving. and avery fast car.
The feeling of somone watching me i have had. My grandpa died 17 years before i was born, Ive never seen a picture of him or the house he died in but up until about 6 months ago i was having dreams of somone older gettting shot by a kid and couldnt figure out why it scared me. Well apparently that was my grandpa i saw. I stil have feelings up him watching me.
He was and avvid shooter..love guns..so everytime i go out and shoot my guns..he seems to watch me..Sometimes weird things happen.
i'm scared to death of losing a friend. be itmy girlfriend, my oother 2 close buddies, or anybody i'm close to. i'm not really GOOD friends with many people. just a few i can count on 2 hands with plenty of fingers left over. i have no idea how it feels, but i know i'm gonna face it someday.....and boy, does that scare me more than running into a burning building ever would. good luck
I think one of the hardest things, when you're young, is to come face-to-face with your own mortality. The loss of a peer is a real smackeroo, reminding you that none of us live forever. Check my sig.
I lost a friend this past spring too. On the main country road that leads home from school, there is a sharp turn, and my other buddy that was taking him home took the turn too fast, fish tailed around and smacked a tree right infront of the principals house. The driver was ok, but my buddy died on the way to the hospital. He wasnt a close friend, but i was getting to know him a little while before he died, we worked on my truck a little and he showed me how to correctly use my rachet shifter. He had a 76 Z/28 with a 500+ horse 355 in it. I was the only person thats ever got a ride in it (that was a scary ride)
That roads always been dangerous, sharp turns and stuff like that, there are atleast 4 accidents on that road each year. a girl just died about 5 years ago on it, and my mom told me shes lost count on how many people have died on that road.
infact there was a wreck a few days ago, in the exact same turn my buddy died in, the gaurd rail my buddy unfortuneately missed went thru this kids car, but no one died.
Dont worry in a month or two everything will be normal again
