    You never know when it'll be your time. This story tells the details.

    All 9 of the people (3 dead, 6 injured) in the van worked for Southern Company, which owns Alabama Power (where I work). We just had a company-wide moment of silence, and I thought I'd put these people and their families out there to TW, too.

    That's really sad. My heart goes out to all families involved.

    Condolences (sp?) to the families involved, especially those who lost a loved one. :pray: all the injured recover.

    I didn't think they were allowed to use those vans for that type of thing anymore due to them being so easy to roll...
