Death of Warsaw Student

[BrassMonkees]

At around 5:00 am saturday morning Tiffany Landrum? i believe died in a car wreck along with one other person. I didn't know the girl too well, but none the less it is still terrible to see a fellow classmate die so tragically. We made it the entire year and now had this happen...

[Combat Chuck]

To state the facts.

The two females in the vehicle were Tiffany Landrum and Taylor Bilderback. I apologize if I erred in the correct spellings.....

Tiffany just graduated this past year, and Taylor was going to be a junior.

I can't tell you how this....this just rips my heart out. No one deserves this. No one. Not only my thoughts and prayers go out to all who were personally affected by this, but my heart.

[Alpha]

I know a lot of people that had the worst night of their lives last night. I was one of them, and I even got to see Ben Harper and Jack Johnson last night. Tiffany was one of those people that could never stop smiling... I can't understand that I'm not going to see her smile again. Taylor I was really really close to. She was by far the sweetest, most generous, and most wonderful girls I've had the luck of knowing... Just 40 hours ago I was at Warped Tour with them, or hanging out in Marsh parking lot and getting pumped up for the biggest day of the year for us. Now they are gone...

I don't know what to say. To everyone else that feels the same pains I do, feel free to PM me about it. I loved those girls like sisters and I understand that talking about it helps.

[Saint DH]

I didn't really know either one of them much at all, Tiffany was seated right before me at graduation...my condolences to anyone who was affected by this tragedy.

I send my condolences to the families of these two girls. They were so young. Nobody should have their lives taken from them at such a young age. They and their families will be in my thoughts and prayers.

[Orgazmo]

Yeah, I wasn't really close to either of them, but Tiffany was very kind to Ugly Bastard, Lethal, and I when we tried to scam the Hoosier Lottery. She allowed us access to the ticket dispenser things so we could inspect them. She was really cool. Things like this are never good...

Indiana 15 crash kills 2
By Masaaki Harada
The Journal Gazette

Two teen-agers died in a crash in Kosciusko County

Early Saturday, the Kosciusko County Sheriff's De-partment reported. Tiffanee L.
Landrum, 18, and Taylor Bilderback, 17, both of Claypool, were pronounced dead at the
scene on Indiana 15 south of Union Street.

A Dodge Dynasty driven by Landrum was going south on Indiana 15 when it lost control
in a curve, crossed the center line and collided with an oncoming Ford Taurus, driven by
Kristi Harger, 21, of Akron, a report said. Bilderback, a passenger in Landrum's vehicle,
was ejected, the report said.

Harger and 2-year-old Ethan Harger, of Akron, were taken to Kosciusko Community
Hospital for minor injuries, the report said.

Here's the link to the actual page.

It truly is very sad to see this. I went to elementary school with Tiffanee and it is all so real you know. I thought our class was in the free but I guess 2003 will leave unscathed. I send my condolences to the families, I would never wish this upon anybody, and especially to somebody like Tiffanee whom the few times I did talk to her from 1st grade on up she was a very nice person to me.

[silver and cold]

It was horrible! i was with them friday before they left to come back to town. They were both my friends. the last time i saw Taylor, we were up crowd surfing and acting dumb. its hard to beleive it coulod happen to THEM, (sigh)

the veiwing for both is tomorrow (Tuesday)
2-8.

2 to 8 at the funeral home by US 30 and the hospital (or across from the BP). I ask that anyone come to pay their respects to two beautiful, wonderful and tragically young girls. It would mean so much to both of their parents.

[Saint DH]

I believe the funeral home you are talking about is called "McHatton-Sadler Funeral Home"

Actually, it's McHatton-Sadler. Not to be a dick or anything...just don't want anyone showing up at the wrong one.

I knew both these girls. I ate lunch with Tiffanee a lot toward the end of the school year and I have talked with Taylor a few times. Both were great girls. They were both so full of life.

[malibu]

I have known Tiffanee since I was about 6, last time I saw her was Tuesday, June 24. She was on my softball team. Softball's never going to be the same without her. Taylor was also a good friend of mine. She stayed at my house about 3 or 4 weeks ago. I'm gonna miss both of them so much. The funeral is Wednesday at 11 A.M. at the high school in the tiger den. I'll be there to pay my respects.

[Fruitacious B]

I won't be able to be to any of those events, and it kills me. Everyone, please pay my respects to their families, this hurts really bad.

[malibu]

Let me just say... the viewing and the funeral were both terrible... I have never felt so overwhelmed with sadness in my life. Tiff and Taylor had way to much makeup on and it kind of bothered me just because Tiffaneè and Taylor never wore makeup. The funeral is what hit me the hardest... I couldn't even control myself... My friend came over last night to see if I wanted to go to the Oasis, I was asleep because I was exhausted after only getting 30 minutes of sleep Tuesday night, and she explained to my mom how I reacted at the funeral and she said "She sobbed and sobbed I had to hold her because she went hysterical." I never realized how bad it was going to hurt. If anyone out there needs someone to talk to, I am still here to talk to because it helps me to get my feelings out.

[starfish]

i also along w/ the fruitacious B couldn't make it to either one of the events that took place b/c i was also out of town. yet i wasn't extemly close to either of the girls i new both adn talked to both and also bummed cigs to tiff in the parking lot all the time. which i will never be able to do again which saddens me greatly. and taylor i was getting to no better, which i was gettign to like b/c she seemed liek a nice girl. i no it's gotta be hard for everyone b/c it was hard for me adn there have got to be alot of ppl that were closer to them then i was. so for all those ppl i give u all internet hugs and wish u the best of luck.

[the_butcher]

"to speak of you destroys me, because i know it causes pain"

i really didn't want to post on this thread...because i cry when i think about this...

taylor bilderback was my girlfriend. we spent the entire day at warped tour together, and even some of the last few hours of her life. i...i can't even say anything.

everyone just please live your lives to the fullest, because you don't know when they are going to be over.

[Combat Chuck]

Truer and more heartfelt words have never been spoken. the_butcher, all our hearts go out to you and to the families. I'm sure you knew this, but it can never hurt to reiterate. You have a helluva lot of guys (and even some girls) here to hold you up if you need it.

[silver and cold]

the_butcher,
Like Chuck said, we are all here for you, I know I've already told you that, but its true!

And I would like to state, the lady who's drivway we used, is a COLD HEARTED BITCH! She sat there and kicked us off of her property, because it reminded her that a bad tradgedy happened so close to her house. Fuck her, I, along with the_butcher,Pleides,Malibu,SugarPlum and many others were kicked off there. But her statement saying "because it reminded her that a bad tradgedy happened so close to her house" is bullshit, she thinks she has it bad, we were the ones that cared for them, we were the ones who loved them, she didnt even know them! And to kick us all of her property, and call the sheriff, she couldn't possibly have a heart.
