I hate to post sad news, but this one I can't get out of my head.

Pacific is a very small town, so when something bad happens it's usually to someone you know.

A good friend of ours daughter (18), her boyfriend (19), and his roomate (20) were killed by a drunk driver that crossed the center line of a two-lane hwy just outside of town last night. My son and daughter are absolutely devastated, they've been friends with all three since they were in kindergarten.

Drinking and Driving.......just don't do it PLEASE!

The car in the pic was a Volvo...hard to tell.

It was determined that the "shitbag" driving the Dakota in the one that crossed the center line causing the wreck, if nothing else the parents of the driver (Josh) will know that he wasn't responsible...if that's any comfort. Apparently he's [shitbag] got several DUI's under his belt, and when they found beer cans at the scene, the Pacific Police assumed that they came from the kids vehicle, which unfortunately is more often than not a correct assumption around here.

To make it worse, the mother of the girl (Chelsey) who died in the wreck, lost her Husband (actually, recent "Ex") in an alcohol related drowning accident (more like a "Redneck's" last words "Hey! watch 'is", not funny, but appropriate if you knew the guy) at Lake of the Ozarks not two months ago.

Here's my problem. I know both of the parents of the girl real well, but don't think I can mentally handle going to the viewing/funeral (she's was right inbetween my daughter and sons age). Funerals are tough enough, most of the ones I've attended involve people that lived a full life, but at her young age it makes it even more terrible. I seriously don't think I can look them in the face without balling.
Do you think that a handwritten sympathy card to each would be respectful enough?
