Tragic week

Thursday on of my best friends calls me to inform me that he found his brother hanging from the ceiling at his home. His brother has had problems with drugs over the years, and that destructive behavior continued, but no one had any anticipation he was suicidal.

Then, last night, a two great friends of mine were t-boned at an intersection near my home. Kimmy was riding with her best friend and love of her life, Tapper. Kimmy was thrown 50+ foot and died instantly. Tapper is still clinging to life and in critical condition.

I'm sad. A very special person was stolen from us yesterday. A person full of joy and happiness. A person who was kind and caring, loving and honest. She was a powerful force in our local biker community and worked so hard to spread her enthusiasm for motorcycles and the biker culture. She was a true champion of our passion and she is now "taking the long ride".

two in one week, and I ask anyone willing to constantly pray with me and 1000's of family, friends and fellow bikers have been doing since about this time yesterday, and pray for our friend Tapper's recovery, and for Kimmy's loving family.

Live Life and be happy with what you have and enjoy the ones your with......because Tomorrow may never come. Sorry for your loss Jim and Godspeed on the recovery of your other friend. I am conflicted with Religion but I see the good side to it and I hope that side helps you and your friends.
Quick story and by no means trying to sabatoge this post. My youngest daughter called me up crying tonight. She dance all day yesterday and all day today for Competitions that her school enters. She dances all the time and it cost a fortunate but I would give every last cent I have for my girl because she is so passionate towards this. Her School went up against the best schools on the Island. The winning school gets $5000 sent to there favorite Charity.

This was fierce Competition because some of these girls along with my little one are National Champions. My daughters school won and they decided to send all the money to one of there own who last year while driving in a car with her friends and there father driving were hit head on about 3 blocks from my house by a young kid who dropped his cell phone while driving. The father died at the scene. Two other girls in the car were slightly injured but the other girl who was in my daughters Dance school broke her neck and is Paralized for now. I say that because I always feel one day they will find a cure for broken necks and spines. But for the past year she has been fully paralized. Well today her school won overall first place and they gave the money to her.

I am so proud my 10 yr old felt the emotion and compassion towards this girl. I took this call when I was at another family dispute with some very rich idiots who were fighting in front of there little kids.... Life is odd but at times extremely rewarding. For your friends that died I'm sure they touched many people as they have yourself and thats all you can do in life. So they should be able to move on I would think.
 
Sorry to hear that. As one who has lost love ones suddenly and unexpected.... my prayers are with you.

Again, Sorry to hear this.
