I'm so sorry for your loss. I've been in 2 accidents on Hwy 42, one due to two truckers playing games, and the other was a 16 Yr old girl going to fast on a corner, and both of us hitting oil on 42 E. I can't imagine if the 16 Yr old would've died, her fault, or mine. I pray for your family, and even though you might not feel this way now, time does help your pain. God Bless, and sincerely Sherry Underwood! 💕🙏
