      My husband was killed 10/12/08 in a head on collision with a Tanker on I-70. He was 44. He had been spending time with his mom for a few months before her life journey ended due to cancer. He was on his way home to KY to take me back to his moms impending funeral in Maryland. He never made it home. She died 4 days later. We had a double ceremony for them. We buried her and his ashes were scattered off the pier of Concord Point Lighthouse were he had proposed to me years ago.
