My "little" brother gone, but NOT forgotten!
http://www.kcci.com/video/20537816/index.html
This came as such a blow to us! There is a full blown investigation as Adam would NEVER get drunk behind the wheel and drive. Nor did he EVER drive his mustang on gravel. So to us there are SOOO many unanswered questions.
Yesterday we walked the bean field looking for Adams phone because it was not on him. We found sooo much debris from the car we figure that car was going at top speed when it went into the ditch first. But I was NOT prepared to see the photo of the car EVEN knowing all the pieces we had picked up. We did find a watch but it was Toms. My heart is so broken. Adam was like my little brother. Actually he (we found out years ago) he is my 3rd cousin. He lived here in town with his mom till he was 20 and then of course moved out and in with room mates. He had just bought a house this summer. He was only 27 years old.
this is one of the MANY reasons I hate when people get behind the wheel after DRINKING!!!Last edited by whatever; 08-26-2009 at 07:08 AM.

I am so sorry. Its unbelieveable that anyone survived that crash, that doesn't even look like a car anymore. Did you know Tom? I'm sure they will find out which one was driving but either way Adam is gone and I am so sorry.
Be who you are and say what you feel, those who mind don't matter and those who matter don't mind.

Yes. He graduated with Adam. I haven't seen him in years. We TRULY believe he was driving the car. They are taking DNA off the air bags etc. to see who was driving etc. We know he (tom) either passed out or waited to call for help. Because it was hours AFTER the bars closed. No ONE was contacted till 6:30 the next morning and they shut down a bar at 3 just 4 miles from their location.

Tom wandered to some Semi's nearby and was sitting in there and called his Gf for help. They had to us GPS from his phone to find them.
Picking up all the cars parts, I'm talking break calipers broke in HALF, parts of rims etc. (and Adam bought the best) we knew it would be bad, But nothing prepared me for the pix of that car.
We even found Toms watch out there. but we can't find Adams phone.
The crash site is horrific. We figure the car flipped end over end 3-4 times easliy.My "adopted" brother. Gone but not forgotten. 8/23/09

I am so very sorry. Since I saw the video, there was a bud light case in the car.. maybe they were driving the back country roads having a few?? Either way, its a terrible tragedy and I am so very sorry for your loss
If ya ain't careful, this flea will bite your arse!
