12:57, how do you know that? Quit making assumptions about people and feel sorry for the family is that now without a loved one.
Yeah this is a good family! They have been through alot with losing Randy! People don't need to open there mouths anymore seriously! It's not right this woman just died! She was someone's mother, wife, daughter. This world is careless!
I am praying for family and loved ones who are experiencing a terrible loss.
It is a shame.. this section of rt 50 is very dangerous.. 4 traffic lights bunching up vehicles on a 55 mph highway with cars pulling out onto it from walmart has always been a recipe for disaster.
Not texting. She was talking on the phone whith her husband while it happened. They were seperated. Idk what they were talking about. Was in the e.r. and overheard it. So sad. Can only imagine talking to someone when something like that happens.
In reply to the reply, that information is private(if you are true or not) and you should not put that on here. How rude and disrespectful. To the news source, please remove it out of respect and privacy to the family. If anyone wants to say they are sorry to hear about the death and accident, that is nice. Otherwise keep it to yourself.
