A girl from my high school who was three years younger than me (my brother's age) died last night when she was driving home. She lost control of the vehicle and was ejected from her car. It sounds like she was alive when help arrived, but they couldn't save her. She died. Dead.

Did I know her?

I live in a small town. Everyone knows everyone and their family. She was a teammate. I coached her. Wasn't real close with her nor were we really friends. But, she was a spunky, quirky, popular, and fun girl. We got along alright when we interacted, but I haven't talked to her since I graduated.

And then I saw on facebook that she died last night, and it's just so sad. So so so sad.
