Anniversary of death
« on: January 08, 2010, 06:53:29 AM »
My oldest daughter would play this song everyday after the death of her mother. She was killed by a drunk driver on christmas day in 2000. This time of the year is very hard for me.

I am sorry for your loss. A Latin quote from the poet Horace is good to remember; "non omnis moriar", meaning "not all of me will die." No one is really gone as long as a memory lives. I believe that is important for all to remember.

Regandon,
  Prior to Bulgaria's entry into the European Union,drunk drivers were subjected to a 2 strikes & you're out policy,which means that once they were caught driving drunk by the police the second time around,they were sentenced to death.

The death sentence was the Nicolae Ceaucescu Treatment - being put up against a wall & shot!

Drunk drivers are lowlifes in the same category as those who peddle drugs.

Aidan.

It's a touching tribute.  Knowing of your daughter's relationship to the song made it so much more impressive.

It made me cry.  I am sorry such a terrible thing happened.
I have collected U.S coins for many years, and then Civil War Tokens, but am now actively building a collection of Conder Tokens,
the coins that made the Industrial Revolution a whopping success. : )
