Extremely Sad Tragedy
« on: February 17, 2007 - 04:33:19 AM »
The Feb.12th 2007 tragedy at Trolley Square in Salt Lake City (http://www.ksl.com/?nid=148&sid=888784) (http://kutv.com/topstories/local_story_045100658.html) directly affected our dear friend Steve Hinckley, the head of car show operations for Mopars at the Strip.
Steve' s 15-year-old daughter and her mother were visiting Trolley Square when this senseless act of violence took place. Tragically, Steve's precious daughter Kirsten was shot during the rampage, and her life was taken. Kirsten's mother is in the hospital, suffering from gunshot wounds.
The Hinckley family are dear friends to many of us. Steve and his family can use your cards and letters of support at this time. Please send your love and support to:

I just read the news article.  That was horrible, like a bad nightmare.  I can't even fathom what it's like to lose one of my kids.  The pain all the families are feeling... I can't even imagine.  My thoughts and prayers go out to them.

It makes me very angry that so many good people are affected by the ridiculous behavior of thugs.  I am aways sorry to hear of these things happening.

That's aweful!!!  Stories like this always make me wonder what the he!! these psychos are thinking to go out and commit such an act!  What's sad is I easily could've told you he'd be a menace to society after the remark of him "dropping out of school in '04".  What's wrong with society these days? :pullinghair:  All the losers who dropped out of my class back in hs have all gone on to become drug dealers or imprisoned, so why even put up with this crap? :villagers:

You get enough people in the world and someone is bound to go nuts. Most people are good people and this is, sadly, one of those exceptions.

Wrong place wrong time. Very sad.

Such a sad end to an innocent life. My prayers go out to the families and victims.


These kind of things make me swell with anger. So sad it nearly brought tears thinking of my own family being in that situation. :(

Having lost a daughter in her prime (18 y/o), I understand the feelings he is going through.  My heartfelt prayers go out to his family and the other families that lost loved ones in this act of cowardice.  We will never know why stuff like this happens.  I'm glad the worthless POS that did this was taken out in the process by the police.    Oldschool
