Horrible Accident
My sister died instantly in a car accident yesterday on her way to work. Not quite sure what you make of it, we're all still hurting pretty bad. We just came back from a family ski trip this weekend. It's just all surreal. Thing were looking to be so good for 2008 too.
Here's the 6:00 news broadcast of the accident as of last night
http://video.google.ca/videoplay?docid= ... 2035497372" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;
Apparently she died instantly from the impact, so we're glad she didn't suffer, and we are glad that it ended on a good note, but it still hurt so much to loose her. She lived a really good life and did it as best she could, and she had a big heart. At this point I'd like to blame it on her damn tires. She had farily new all-seasons, and I even drove he car home Christmas Day night from my aunt (I left early cause I had to work in the morning) and I told her it felt like her power steering is going, and that her tires suck (yes, I actually said that). She never liked that road, nor driving her car in the winter. She's normally good at taking my parents vehicles if the weather is bad, but it was just a light coating, stuff we've dealt with driving in many times. I'd like to think if she had winter tires on it would of prevented the situation, or if anything not cause her to loose control like she did. We've told her a few times, but she insisted she didn't need them.
R.I.P. Joanne, We Miss you!

Re: Horrible Accident
Mike, my deepest condolences. It will remain surreal for some time. These things sometimes do. We all work ourselves through these times in our own way, time and fashion. You'll find yours too. Keep strong for the family and yourself.
