My prayers are with all of you at this time of tragic loss. I was about 10 cars behind the scene on Route 9 for about 3 hours... and began saying prayers for the people involved and their families at the very moment I was stopped. Once I knew my daughters were safe, I began to think how likely it was that it could be someone my daughters know. Indeed, he was a year ahead of my oldest daughter at Valley, and she know who he was, and my younger daughter and her friends had been with him on occasion. My prayers continue for you to find solace and comfort somehow in all of this... certainly all of the posts attest to what a wonderful young man he was. Stay strong....
