Jul. 14, 2006 - Teen Suicide
It's another sad day in our home. The 19 year old daughter of my long time friend (35 years!) just committed suicide. I can't even imagine what could be so horribly wrong in a young persons life that would bring them to the point of taking their own life.
Witnesses say they saw her car parked by the train tracks. She waited until the warning lights came on and the safety gate started to come down and then she pulled out onto the tracks and stopped her car. She was apparently on her cell phone at the time. What a violent and tragic ending to a beautiful young life.
Ashlee must have felt desperate. Please listen to your kids, give them a hug and be there for them. Ashlee left behind her infant son, sister, parents, and many aunts, uncles and cousins.
Please pray for the family as they struggle to cope.
