Fellow Car Enthusiast Lost to Drunk Driver

This happens way too often, but it really hits home when it is someone you know. Please click on this link (http://www.shoforum.com/showthread.php?t=69730) and remember to be responsible during this holiday season but also in the future.

This 25 year old leaves a wife and a one year old son.

Through over forums I am in, over $2000 has been raised in just a few days to help his wife and child through the financial burden of this event. Money won't bring him back, but we hope it will help during the next few weeks.

Take care and drive safely.

"Through other forums"... sorry I was typing quickly and I would edit if I could.

Stories like this piss me off. I hate drunk drivers. Short of installing a full cage in your daily, it's hard to protect yourself/family from them.

It's sad, but it's sad whenever someone losses their life over someone elses carelessness. Whether it be drunk driving, someone on a cell phone, or just plain screwing around. I don't weigh any of those differently.

Drunk drivers are selfish bastards...

Sorry if I offend anyone, but it's just not right. If you're too intoxicated to drive then be a man (or woman) and admit it!

Drunk drivers are pieces of shit. I can't believe how many of the locals still do it...

According to the guy's profile (which his mom was using to post), it said Arkansas.

Arkansas is where he was from.

Our club has now raised over $3000. That is absolutely amazing!

his mom was using it?? from what I read I got the impression that his dad was posting about his son, and that the young man that died wasn't a shoforum member or anything.
