| BOCA RATON, Fla. -- 10 years
ago, on a February day 1996, five teens lost their lives
in a horrendous car crash on Palmetto Park Road. The 19yr
old driver lost control at 90mph; crossed the median; crashed
into an oncoming vehicle and changed the lives of these
families forever! |
Among the victims was Florida State Rep. Irving Slosberg's daughter, Dori (14
yrs old); her friends Margaux (13 yrs old), Carolina (14 yrs
old), Crystal (15 yrs old) & Ryan (15 yrs old). Such a senseless
tragedy for such a young group of kids...

More & more these signs are dotting the edge of the highway.
These signs - 'descansos'
(Spanish for 'place of rest') along the highway stand as symbols
of love, remembrance & celebration of life.

Nine kids snuck out of a movie theater, piled into a compact
car and sped down the road carelessly enjoying their youth.
The results of a carefree night of fun ended in a tragedy.
Five teens killed; 1 teen left a quadriplegic; 1 teen and 3
women suffered severe injuries; the driver, a 19 yr old
teenage, charged with the accident, forgotten
about in jail.
Five families lost a child and many more left to deal with this
tragedy.
I've learned from this memorial that ::
The possibility of...
friendship and respect enduring for all eternity. |
