Marina, Whitney, and Wesley Hendrickson
So, as you all may or may not know Whitney Hendrickson was a 2008 IB Graduate from Palmer High School. She passed away Tuesday March 17, 2009 through a horrific and tragic accident because of a careless driver. A car crashed into a truck which then hit the gas pump, where Whitney was filling up her van. She was then pinned in between her van and the pump and a spark from the accident lit the gas on fire and she burned to death. Her passenger tried to push the van out of the way and others tried to get her out, but the flames were just too hot. She screamed for help and ended up dying in the flames.
Whitney was one of the most amazing girls i have met and she will be dearly missed! We lost contact after graduation, but still, after four years of being together, she had a great impact on me and I cannot believe she is gone.
She was only 18 years old and had so much left in her life to do.
I am still in shock about the whole idea of her gone, so this post really isn't much more then a ramble, and I am sorry, but felt I needed to post something.
