As to what happened, nobody's really sure, wife can't remember, wasn't looking at road at all before accident. Daughter has no idea either. Miracle that those two survived. Single vehicle crash.I now have funerals to go to.Don't think that it can't happen to you................

Still big enough to get the general idea though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HellionXR6T I'm Back!! Thats right, long over due! :) Lifetime Members 4,348 Member For: 22y 2m 28d Gender: Male Location: West Brisbane Posted 10/04/04 10:52 AM Share Posted 10/04/04 10:52 AM Hmmmm, for sure. Mate, condolences on your loss. Sometimes a reality check like this can be a real stab in the heart. If only the price wasn't so high. Try to have high spirits through the remainder of Easter. I'm sure all of us will be thinking of you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
