OT- deaths of basketball high schoolers
| Sun, 01-13-2008 - 1:33pm |
It is all over the news and newspaper here. So tragic.
A basketball team was coming home from an away game in New Brunswick Friday night in one of those 16 people vans.
The driver lost control (the road conditions were far from ideal) and hit a transport truck.
Eight people were killed, include a female teacher and 7 boys.
All I can think about is those poor parents. What a waste!

Life happens. We have to make the best of what is here and now. Being a parent of a 17 year old boy, I can only imagine the pain those poor parents are going through.
I hope some good comes from this tragedy in regards to sport/field trips (i.e. no late night driving...). NB is suppose to have terrible roads and Friday night, there were freezing rain conditions.
OMG as a mother I can't even imagine. I will pray for those families. I don't know how they get over a thing like this !
Don't walk in front of me, I may not follow. Don't walk behind me, I may not lead. Just walk beside me and be my friend.
How horrible! So many lives in one instant
A van like that must have been so difficult to handle in icy conditions.
