We are all numb and devastated. He had just left his girlfriend's house to make an DMV appointment. His girlfriend actually heard the crash from her house, checked on his location from her phone and saw that his car wasn't moving.
We are all in shock at his early passing.

Man dies after SUV crashes into tree | fox5sandiego.com
We are heartbroken to have lost such a fine young man, taken way too soon. 20 years old. We can't believe that he's gone.

Please hug your children, and let them know how much you love him. You just never know.:sorrow:
Oh I am so sorry!!! :sadhug2:

My son had a best friend, they were thick as thieves. Even had the same birthday. They were going to meet for dinner and his friend crashed his motorcycle and died.:sad10:

This is so sad, I am so sorry. As a mom I'm sure you're aware of this but make sure your son gets grief counseling or something similar, being a young adult and losing someone super close is very difficult. (Not speaking from experience though).

Victoria, he will likely need counseling. He already suffers from major depressive disorder and anxiety, and has alrelady acknowledged that he is struggling.

He and his friends are hosting a car meet tomorrow evening in celebration of Nic, as this group of boys were very much into all things related to cars: photography, mechanics, shows, etc.

We still can't believe that he's no longer with us.
