A precious life lost

SaraLuna

I just found out that my 19-year-old coworker was killed in a car accident today. She was 36 weeks pregnant. The newborn is clinging to life, but it's not looking good. My heart is shattered. This young lady was bright, funny, beautiful, and had her whole life in front of her. She was so excited to welcome her little girl in a few weeks. She couldn't wait to be a mother and show her baby all the love and devotion her grandmother, who raised her and her sister, had shown her. I can't wrap my head around this. It feels like I'm stuck in a horrid nightmare. I want to wake up and have her here with me, laughing over some stupid thing a customer did.

Hug your loved ones tight.

Rest in peace, beautiful angel. 💔

How tragic. I'm so sorry for this young woman and her at-risk baby. And Sara, I hope you can find what you need to weather this stunning blow.

I have nothing else to offer but the promise that you're in my thoughts and prayers. Find comfort where you can.

I'm so sad to hear of the loss of your friend. I'll keep you, her family, and her baby girl in my prayers.

What an awful tragedy. Hopefully the baby comes through. Sorry that you lost your friend.

SaraLuna

Her best friend's grandma posted that she's still alive and fighting for her life. I am praying so hard that this is true! If you are the praying kind, please join me in those prayers! I'll update when I have definite information!

SaraLuna If you are the praying kind, please join me in those prayers

I sure will, Sara. How tragic and heartbreaking. I'm so sorry to hear that.

We're seeing posts on social media from people alleging to know her stating she's brain dead and being removed from life support today. We're seeing conflicting reports that her baby is either thriving or also brain dead. We don't know what's true and what isn't. We're waiting to hear from her grandmother. We haven't shared the info with the store as yet. We want the information to be verified and accurate first. This has been such an emotional time as we struggle to get the facts and try to wrap our heads around this beautiful, vibrant young woman being maimed or worse. Witnesses have stated the person who hit her was drunk and speeding which has us seething with anger. A life, possibly two, being cut short because of this person's idiot decision to drink and drive is loathsome.

Please, keep praying for her family, her baby, and her. I'll update when we hear from grandma.

Our beautiful girl is in ICU on life support. They're giving those who love her the time needed to say their goodbyes before terminating support. Her daughter, born via emergency C-section is critical but stable. Please, keep the family in your prayers. All of us who know her are struggling so much with her loss - even though it's not official, just knowing it's coming soon is gutwrenching. We're also angry. Based on witness statements, the person who caused this wreck was speeding, blew a stop sign, and killed an innocent young woman. Pissed is too mild a term for my emotions towards them.

SaraLuna So sorry for your loss I hope they throw the book at the person that caused it.

SaraLuna the person who caused this wreck was speeding, blew a stop sign, and killed an innocent young woman.

I'm so very sorry for your loss Sara. Besides lots of strength to you and all the loving ones, I really hope they'll go as hard as they can on the driver who caused all that heartbreak. Who obviously broke more than just one law in doing so...

A photo of our precious Kyara and her beloved pup, Parker, from her baby shower a few weeks ago. She isn't officially gone yet, but close enough that we are all in the beginning stages of mourning the loss of this beautiful light. We are all shattered. She was truly beloved by all who knew her. I pray her rest is peaceful and that her daughter survives so that Kyara's light can continue to shine through her baby girl.

SaraLuna

My coworker wrote this as a tribute to Kyara. I think it's as beautiful as our beloved angel.

SaraLuna

Kyara left us yesterday, four days after the accident. She was surrounded by loved ones as she took her last breaths. Her baby girl is still fighting. Please, keep her and their family in your prayers.

The woman who caused the accident has been arrested and charged. Additional charges, including manslaughter, will be forthcoming.

I tried to put my thoughts into words. I didn't do a very good job. I'm too broken right now. https://sararosetta.blogspot.com/2026/09/dear-kyara.html

Sara, I'm sorry for your loss of a good friend and bright shining star.
You wrote a very beautiful piece here.
Rest knowing that her light will shine on through her daughter.

SaraLuna

We just got word that Kyara's baby girl passed away. It was devastating news to receive though not entirely unexpected given the last update we had. Two beautiful lives taken by someone who chose to drive under the influence. No punishment will ever be enough for that bitch.

What a shame, what a tragedy. Two innocent lifes lost....and families lifes changed to the worse forever. Just because another DUI driver. I hope they'll go as hard as they can on her.

I hope she gets the maximum.

According to a coworker who was able to attend this hearing, the prosecutor came out swinging. I hope that continues through the trial. If they agree to a plea bargain instead of trial, I hope they go hard. It will never be enough, of course, because no punishment will give us Kyara and Maelynn back.

This coming Friday, 09/25/2026, is Kyara's due date, the date she should have been welcoming - or about to welcome because let's face it babies come when they want to - her little girl and getting to hold her in her arms, something she'd been excitedly waiting for. It's going to be a hard day for us. Friday, 10/09/2026, we will be saying our final goodbyes at their memorial service. It's going to be so difficult for the many who loved Kyara and Maelynn, but I pray it brings us all a measure of peace. Please, keep her family, friends, and those many, many, many of us who loved her and her baby girl in your thoughts and prayers.

Today was Kyara's due date. We should have been happily welcoming Maelynn to our work family. Instead.....
