One year later.....
July 10th, 2005 seems as clear of a memory as if it happened yesterday. It was a normal Sunday, my mom woke me up to go to church. At the time I was going out with my friend Bryan and before i went to the high school room he pulled me aside and said "hey can we just be friends". It didn't bother me because it felt a little wierd dating him. The day went on like a normal Sunday.... then my mom got ready for bed and i got on the computer, the news on Fox 59 came on and one of the headlines was "A Zionsville family is mourning the loss of their daughter tonight" I started to listen to see if I knew who it was. I never thought they'd say "...Keli O'Conner...." I instantly started to cry. I went into my moms room and she asked what was wrong. I couldn't talk for a good 5 minutes. Then I told her Keli died in a car crash, she held me tight then I got back up and came back to the computer. She followed me and said maybe I should go to bed. I told her I would in a little bit. I remember spending time with the high schoolers at my church... I rememeber on Wensday we didn't really have a bible study, Keli's mom brought over alot of pictures and we made collages for Keli's viewing and funeral. I remember at the funeral Dwayne sat by me and my mom.... then I started to cry and Dwayne just held me.... then he started crying.... I had never seen him cry so much..... Most that week was a blur.... but there were parts that I remember.
