Steph's funeral was heartwrenching. Jesse(her bf) had spent the last 2 yrs writing a song for her and had finally finished it a couple weeks before the accident. He sang it for her. He had also given her one of his dreadlocks that she always kept in her car. When she had the accident, she was able to get out of the car, call her Dad(but was unable to reach him) and was coherent enough to tell the paramedics that she was wearing her seatbelt. It happened in near of an elderly lady's house who lives alone. She heard the horn beeping but was frightened. The horn beeped for 4 minutes then stopped. That's when she called 911. While she was on the phone with 911, she had a heart attack. When the paramedics got Steph into the amb. she was clutching Jesse's dreadlock. She had no cuts - no blood - just bruising. She died on the way to the hospital of a ruptured aorta. She was buried with Jesse's dreadlock in her hand for everyone to see. It was so sad. It's horrible how many lives can be devastated in the blink of an eye. My heart and prayers go out to all those who have experienced any kind of tragedy like this. God Bless you all. |
