    Rachel….. I miss You So Much. I Feel so terrible For Not Keeping In Touch Like I Should Have. We Get SO Caught Up In Our Daily Routines That We Forget to Tell People How Much They Mean To Us. I Find Peace In Knowing That Carson Now Has Her Very Own Angel In Heaven.

    I Love You Dearly And You Will Be Missed Greatly.

    Michael If You See This Please Email Me The Service Details. Thank You, And Prayers To Your family.

    So sorry for your loss. Lying in bed last night and all of the sudden my power goes out. Minutes later you could hear all the sirens and I felt a knot in my stomach. I knew it had to be bad. In 2005 I lost my sister when she too was exiting off the interstate onto hwy 29. My heart goes out to her family.

    I saw the vehicle on my way home last night, getting off the interstate. It looks absolutely horrible and I was praying whoever was involved was ok. So sad to hear she passed away. My thoughts and prayers are with her loved ones.

    Prayers out to the family and friends of this lady. I live not too far from where it happened, same thing happened a few months ago just as it was said. I was a friend’s last night, my mom told me about this this morning.

    Drove past this and just knew it didn’t end well. Someone else did almost the exact same thing – same location and damage a couple of months ago but was in a larger vehicle. Visibility is good there but something must have happened. Power was out for quite awhile due to the pole breaking. So sorry for the loss.

    I passed this last night and it was horrible :( I told my hubs when I got home that if they survived that it was a miracle. Prayers for the family.
