This morning, I got a call from my boss, he told me that a very good friend and my Head Clerk at the Store hit and killed a 23 year old Astoria girl after leaving a bar in town at 2 am last night. I don't even know what to feel in this situation. He is such a good guy, and it is not like him to get drunk at all...But he killed someone!! His whole life is over, he faces a minimum of 6 years in prison, all because of a few beers... Makes me wonder why anyone would drink and drive. I feel extremely bad for the family of the girl, and I can't help but feel bad for Rick. I never thought I would feel bad for a drunk driver after my Aunt Lisa was killed by one when she was 19. I was wrong, he is a good man, who made a horrible mistake, and will spend the rest of his life having to live with himself. Everyone at work is a wreck, we have a grief counselor coming to the Store tomorrow to help. All I can say is that I am just in shock... I just don't know what to think.
