Update on pix 25 and 26

The parents of a teenager who had been killed in a car accident in Southampton Twnship,Burlington county are channeling their grief into making a real change in the New Jersey law.They would like it mandatory for any drivers in a fatal accident undergo testing for alcohol and drugs.
In July 2007 17 yr old Anthony Farrace was in a Mercedes Benz driven by his girlfriend Danielle McLaughlin.She seemed to have lost control of the car as she attempted to pass a tractor trailor,crashing into a tree.Farrace died almost instantly.McLaughlin suffered injuries.She paid a fine of $200 dollars had her license suspended for about six months due to pleading careless driving. this information came from http://injurylaw.grossmanjustice.com/2009/05/articles/motor-vehichle-accidents/parents of Farrace.
this picture was taken on July 2009 the site is well kept and it breaks my heart whenever i go by it on route 70.

As I watched the birds it made me think where there was once death there is also life!

Since I live in New Jersey all these pictures I have taken are in the NJ area unless

documented differantly.I would like one day to see other roadside memorials added

to this site from all around the world.As a reminder of those we have lost and never gotten to know.Also a place wherefriends and family may leave a comment about their loved ones.
