Yesterday I found out, my moms good friends son died in a car accident. The son, Dominick was driving with his sisters boyfriend. Dominick died and the boyfriend is in a coma. It happened on 28 on the way back from Oakland, the car somehow fell under a truck. He was 21.

This morning I went to the mass at 9:30 in passaic. The casket came in carried in by his friends followed by his mother, sisters, aunt, former girlfriend and whoever else. It was so sad. One friend who was carrying the casket was crying out loud. The mass wasnt too bad, because of course the priest was terrible. During the whole thing, I wasnt to sad or anything, I was just thinking how terrible it is, I mean it could happen to anyone and observing the sisters, how they must feel. My sisters 23, I don't know what I would if God forbid something happened. The one sister was histerical, I would be the same. I havent been to many funerals, and most of the funerals I should've went to, I didn't because I'm too emotional. But it seems like I always take in every other person I know dying so terrible, and horrific but I never imagine myself being in this position some day, and it scared me. At the end, his former girlfriend went up to say a few words. I didn't know he had a girlfriend so I think the whole church bursted in tears when she went up. She described him in her eyes, and read a poem that she wrote 3 years ago when they first started dating that he loved. I think she was his fiance because she kept saying "when we got married". Later on his aunt from austraila said a few words in polish but I didn't pay attention because I was too choked up from the speech before.

His mother was in Austraila at her sisters house, during the accident. Came in lastnight at 11pm, and didnt attend the wake.

There was a huge line of cars going to the cemetary, I didn't think I would go but I did to sum it up. Sitting were the family members, and the girlfriend. The mom seemed like she was crying, more in a state of shock the whole time. The priest. Later on we put flowers on the casket I was more in front, so I saw everyones reaction. It was bad. One of his friends was crying hysterically. When his sister went up the casket, I think she broke down in tears kneeling by the casket. When everyone scattered to the cars, I think I really saw how sad people were, Everyone I went by was fluttered in tears. I'm sure it wouldnt be so sad, if he wasnt 21. He was buried on top of his father, who died alittle less then 4 years ago.

I got my glasses, and now I'm just in a state of shock. I can't seem to concentrate on anything, because it's just in my head. I wouldn't know what to do if I was the mom in that situation or any of the sisters. Looking into your son's/brother's room, knowing you have to clean it out.

R.I.P. Dominick Kimera
