  We lost Alicia Archer Thursday night in a head on collision with a texting driver. No more details at this time.

This is terrible news.  She was a bright and vibrant person, someone that we needed around here to raise the bar, diversify the viewpoint, and stand as a model for young women coming up. 

All I can say is this arrow was broken far too soon.

What a waste. Being a firefighter I've seen the aftermath of people using phones when driving. Thoughts and prayers with her friends and family.

Is there anything we can do for the family?  Is there an address where we can send cards?

  There is a link on facebook I don't know how to post but it is under " Alicia's archery funeral fund"  if anyone would care to donate anything. Thanks to all.

I am on my way.  I'll make up the hole in my budget somehow or other. Thank you, Steve.

Wow, crazy stuff.  Really sad to hear that.  I still see people texting and diving up here even with the severe texting laws in place

Such a waste. For nothing but a text......Sad news indeed.
Only when the last tree has died and the last river has been poisoned and the last fish has been caught will we realize we cannot eat money.

Sad news indeed... I s'pose I shouldn't really say it but I hope the ******* texter died as well, if if not I hope their conscience gnaws away at them for the rest of their life.
These idiots with their phones... probably some totally trivial message anyway. Makes my blood boil >:(
