Dori Slosberg & Friends

Yesterday I attended the 10th anniversity of the accident that took the life of Dori Slosberg & four of her friends. 10 years ago, on February 23rd 1996, five teens lost their lives in a horrendous car crash on Palmetto Park Road. The 19yr old driver lost control at 90mph; crossed the median; crashed into an oncoming vehicle and changed the lives of these families forever!


Among the victims was Florida State Rep. Irving Slosberg's daughter, Dori (14 yrs old); her friends Margaux (13 yrs old), Carolina (14 yrs old), Crystal (15 yrs old) & Ryan (15 yrs old). Such a senseless tragedy for such a young group of kids...

Nine kids snuck out of a movie theater, piled into a compact car and sped down the road carelessly enjoying their youth. The results of a carefree night of fun ended in a tragedy. Five teens killed; 1 teen left a quadriplegic; 1 teen and 3 women suffered severe injuries; the driver, a 19 yr old teenage, charged with the accident, forgotten about in jail.

Five families lost a child and many more left to deal with this tragedy.

The possibility of...
friendship and respect endures for all eternity thru this memorial.
