My cousin, Blake Strebel (19), son of my Aunt Sue and Uncle Tim, was killed last night when his car was t-boned by a Caddy driven by a 17 year old fleeing from the police after a suspected home break-in earlier in the day. The car crashed into Blake and his friend Derek's car when it ran a red light. The impact killed both of them, but the two suspects lived. This follows the death last year of my Uncle Scott (a Utah police officer), from a sudden heart attack during a routine traffic stop.
My heart goes out to my family and I sincerely hope this is the last death they have to mourn for some time. My uncle Tim looks so calm in the video. I don't know that I could be that calm. Although I cannot attend the services, I hope my aunt and uncle are ok and I grieve for Blake's sister's and brothers and my grandparents. This is a lot for them to deal with, but I know my family and they will forgive.

It always saddens my heart when I read stories like this! The innocent die while the guilty live. So aggravating!!
But I know God has a plan for your cousin and his friend, and He needed them with Him to complete the plan!!
My Sincerest Prayers are with You and Your Family!!
