You might have read my earlier blog about Joe Williams coming to Fayetteville, NC Thursday to do a free seminar.  That is how I started out my day.  My day was going very good and I was really enjoying my socializing and learning experience.

Little did I know that a past associate of a company that I was associated with and a friend was having a completely different destiny.

This young man was a father and soon to be a father again.  In a split second...he was gone.  The Lord called him home...Goodbye Shawn....I will see you again one day soon...

Below is the story....I cannot type anything more about this....

 

2 Killed in Separate Fayetteville Wrecks

Posted: Jun. 7, 2007

Fayetteville - One man was killed Thursday in a three-car wreck on Ramsey Street in front of the Veterans Administration hospital, police said.

A Nissan Pathfinder crossed the center line at about 11:15 a.m. and collided head-on with a Ford Escort, killing the driver of the Escort, Shawn T. Chance, 25, of 1644 Kara Court, police said.

A Chevrolet Corsica collided with the Escort after the Pathfinder hit it, police said.

The driver of the Pathfinder, Matthew Desessa, 20, of 1118 W. Rowan St., Apt. B, and the driver of the Corsica, Kimberly Watkins, 42, of 636 Tokay Drive, were taken to Cape Fear Valley Medical Center. Neither suffered life-threatening injuries, police said.

Southbound and northbound lanes of Ramsey Street were closed near the intersection with Cochran Avenue while police investigated the wreck.

No charges have been filed in the case, which remains under investigation.

 

5 Comments on Goodbye to a dear friend and fellow REALTOR...

How very sad, I just lost a client about the same age over memorial day weekend.  My thoughts and prayers are with this family and friends at their time of loss.

Shawn and I were good friends. We've known each other since we were kids. I spent many days over his parents house growing up getting my hair done and just visiting and chatting. We had a lot of good times and laughs. He will be greatly missed by all. My thoughts and prayers will continue to be w/his family in this time of need.

Jeffery, so sorry to hear about your friend.  I can relate to the feelings that go along with such a loss as I lost one of my closest and dearest friends in a fatal car accident almost three years ago and to this day it still "hits me like a rock" every so often.  It's always especially difficult when that person is young and had a full life ahead of them.  All you can do is be there for his family as best as possible at this time when they need the support of his family and friends.

I had known Shawn since we were little kids.  We were the same age, and it's just so sad to see someone die at a young age.  Someone who was full of life and had a full life ahead of them.  He will be missed by many and he will never be forgotten.
