rest in peace dora linares

This past Saturday my father and my stepmother were on their way to their niece's wedding in Vegas. On the drive up from L.A. (which also included my stepmother's sister and mother of the bride, their niece and a friend) they got into a car accident due to two tires exploding. They hit the media which threw the car into a spin and because my stepmother wasn't wearing a seat belt, she was thrown out of the car through the back window. Unfortunately she hit her head on the median and died two minutes later in my dad's arms. Everyone else did not suffer any injuries.

She was a very strong woman and a great wife to my father. It is really sad that she has left us so early. I send all my love to her family and pray that they can find the strength they need during these hard times. May Dora Linares rest in peace; she will be greatly missed...

This picture was taken the day of my wedding of both my stepmother and my father. One more thing, please, please, please wear your seat belt when in a car and make sure your loved ones are wearing one too. It may be the only thing that saves your life.
