There were a few typos , I apologize

I got into a horrible car accident on the same road a few hours later. It was me and 4 of my friends. I don't remember much from that night but I remember over hearing one of the fire fighters telling his co worker how bad he felt about jay jr . At time I knew nothing about the previous accident . I instantly started crying and yelling much more than I already was to any officer or fire fighter that would listen, telling them it should have been one of us ... Or someone else . As scared as I was that two of my friends wouldn't make it, I still till this day will look up look up jay jr hoping to find some type of contact information for his parents ,crying every time. Mall I want to do is hug them. I felt the presence of my brother (rip) and a younger boy who at the time i thought was my 8 year old brother, and soon put together that it may have jays angel . If that was his laughter I heard while the truck was rolling and while I was loosing conscientiousness , he's a sweet boy . Very silly too ... I know my story may sound weird but I've been weird for almost 20 years now but Jay is a Definitely an angel I would love to meet as soon as I get "Home" . God bless you and your family , you guys have nothing but prayers and condolences from my friends, our families, and I . I really hope when the time is right that we'll get a chance to meet you.
