odd how they were on board with him just before that happened

I feel bad for his kids, they're really young, won't ever get to know their dad.

He was from a village about 5 mins from MK. It's only a small place too, that'll be a very somber place today.

A guy went straight into a wall and died in 1999 in Indy.
Very sad though
