That was an aweful event. Sympathiesand prayers to his family, friends, and co-workers.

Having lost my Aunt, who worked in security at Disney and was on her way to work, a little more than a year ago I can only offer my deepest condolences. It is such a terrible tragedy to lose a loved one so quickly, with no warning, and in what seems like a totally illogical way. My thoughts are with all the lives he touched.

My regards to his family. I went through this last year.

This is terrible news. When I’m in WDW, I avoid I4 (which is HARD) because I feel like people drive on it in a VERY crazy way. They need to slow down and police it more, if you ask me.
