    Another Loss, life is underrated.

    A few months ago some of you may remember when i lost a riding buddy to a motorcycle accident. I thought that stung more than anything i could ever feel, until my phone rang this morning and i got the worst wakeup call of my life.

    An ex girlfriend of mine, all on good terms, from when we were younger had recently moved to vermont to go to college. She was going to class the other day, and was killed instantly in a car accident.

    From what i understand she hit some black ice and the car slid, and a van traveling twords her slammed into her drivers side door, killing her.

    Rochelle was the type of person who would always be there to listen to you, and she was the type that if you cried, she cried with you.

    Tonight as we mourn her loss, the sky has started raining, and i cant help but feel that its her crying from heaven, crying with us. I'm trying to find an article on this online, having some trouble. Tommorow is the viewing, hopefully i can keep it inside until i get home, although i cant keep it in now.

    I'm done going on and on, i dont want this to be about me.

    As long as you rermember her, and are influenced by her, she will live on.

    She was so Blonde, she spent 20 minutes looking at the orange juice can because it said "Concentrate."

    When in doubt, read the FAQ.
    Then ask a smart question.

    I'm very sorry to hear that, i know what you're going through. All I can say is it helps to talk with someone else who was close with her about the good times you've had together, and give it time.

    condolences. in france ther's an expression that says "we have the duty of remembering". she doesn't like the type of person you forget easily in any case. take care of yourself.

    something else that may help, which is on my brothers headstone:
    Living in the hearts of others means never having to die.
    something along those line. i can't remember it at the moment ......
