It’s the anniversary of my father’s death

It was exactly 10 pm
8 years ago tonight that I received the devastating news that my father had been hit by a car walking across a busy Las Vegas intersection. Apparenty there had been About 85 tragic accidents where individuals were killed the same way in the same general vicinity that year. My heart sank as I pictured the car hitting him and killing him instantly. When I think of my Dad this plays in my head and what were his thoughts before his life ended ? I know I will see him again one day. I hold on to the promises of Our gracious God .

Really sorry for your loss. It's terrible how blind spots are not changed more to avoid these things. Would it hurt them to spend some pittance on a sign or some speed ramps or to cut shrubbery or whatever to make things a bit safer?

You have the memories of his music/songwriting words at least. My parents don't write and I imagine many others don't either. i hope that gives you some solace. I'm sure he would be glad to be remembered and loved so much.
