My oldest daughter's college roommate and best friend was killed in a car crash Friday night/Saturday morning. She was a passenger in a car that was hit head on by a truck travelling the wrong way on the bridge between Bluffton and Hilton Head. It goes without saying that my daughter is crushed as she lost the first friend that she made in college and her roomate of 2 1/2 years, a huge part of her college experience. Her friend had finished her degree a semester early but had decided to wait until spring so she could graduate with her friends. They were 2 of 4 in a small degree program that would be graduating together. My daughter had been looking forward to celebrating her graduation and now I'm sure will be dreading it. As a parent it's frustrating to feel powerless to do anything to help. I can't imagine how her friend's parents and family feel right now. The last thing her friend posted on Facebook on Friday was "I’m about to walk into one of the best chapters of my life & I’m so ready for it".

certainly to the girl's family. Was the driver in her car killed as well? Terribly tragic situation.

We lost a student here at one of the colleges i work with in Spartanburg over the weekend
Sounds like it might have been her. A bright light gone out way too soon.

So sad.
All you can do is offer your time to listen, console, remember, give her your love.

Absolutely tragic. Sending the vibes to the family, and to your daughter. Her graduation should have been unbridled joy at the accomplishment, and it's horrible that it won't be.

I certainly understand the frustration of wishing you could make it all better or just take all your daughter’s pain and give it to yourself instead. I’m sorry man.

relationships, so it's probably extra tough for her. The good news is that she's still sharing a suite with 2 others from that same period so they've got a built in support system for the next few weeks. It was a small tight knit friend group.
