True Tragedy

Posted: 5/17/2017 7:15:44 AM

I saw a post on Pointbuzz this morning about a Cedar Point employee from Akron.

I don't know if this story got a lot of press in Ohio.
I know it didn't get any out here in N.J.

She was working a Summer job at Cedar Point when she found out her entire family (mother,stepfather,5 brothers and sisters) were killed in house fire.

For those so inclined,please say a prayer for the family.

There's also a gofundme to help pay for funeral expenses.

That is very sad. Cedar Point was one my wife's favorite spots as child where her parents vacationed on Lake Erie. I'll say a prayer for that woman and her family.

Very sad, for those who have been told out of the blue, by someone in charge, that a family member has died in the prime of their life (or in this case many family members) there's not much more horrific than that. Prayers for her and her family.
