Default another sad texting, Florida story

A couple of years ago, a friend of ours son ( he lived near Tampa) was texting, after staying up all night with the birth of his first baby. Well, he was texting his brother and hit a semi and died. So dangerous and soo needless.

He left a young wife and new baby the night she was born!!!! Also his brother felt guilty about it too (Of course, false guilt, but still!!!!).

I only share so that everyone, young and old, can see the dangers of texting and driving. We did use this tragedy as an object lesson for our kids (they also knew the husband and wife and brother and family).
