What a tremendous loss for all who knew them. All we can do is be watchful and mindful to the kids that remain asking them to not speed and drive extra careful. Boys feel so invincable when the get their first car and take extra risks when they are given a hot rod car to drive.
Teenagers should not get their licenses until they are 17 and not legally own a vehicle until 18.
I was a kid myself and realize teens are just not responsible and can not be trusted to be responsible (well no all of them, but how do we distinguish from the few more mature ones?)... RIP poor kids.

I am feeling the pain of those of you that knew these students. We lost our son 4 years ago in a DWI accident where speed was also a factor.

Our prayers go out to you today. God is the only thing that has enabled us to get through.

I did not personally know any of the students involved with the recent tragity. I am very sorry for the parents who have gone through this horrible ordeal. My thoughts are with you, be strong and you will make it through this. As for Matthew we had lockers in the same hallway, I am sorry to say that I never got to know you even though we probably passed one another more then once everyday.
Rest peacefully in heaven

What does it matter where Briana lived. What business is it of anyones. She was loved and going to be missed. Does it really matter where she was sitting. The fact is she died because of inexperienced driver who was driving to fast.
