My cousin and husband killed while cruisin on their Harley

Fatal Crash: Springfield Police have confirmed two deaths in West Bypass crash. - ky3.com

On a beautiful Saturday, Gary & Denise Zenger, riding their 2012 Harley with some buddies down a 50mph busy boulevard; all hell broke loose when a Suburban was forced into their lane to an instant head on collision and then crushed by another pick-up that was behind them. Both Killed instantly.
Three motorcycles and several vehicles involved; investigators are still trying to sort out the mess.
Denise is my cousin; they have two grown children that live out-of-state, who now have to suddenly deal with the loss of both parents and the estate issues.
They can't find a Will.
Thoughts, prayers, good vibes of comfort should be sent their way.
They died doing what they liked best.
I just hope we can all learn to live this present life while we can.

My condolences. My 70 year old sister and her husband have taken to riding around on a Harley clone the last few years. I worry about them. when I heard about it I tried to convince them to get a Miata.

Death is one of the very few things I hate. The separation is terrible. Sorry, for your loss.

Ugly and awful. Very sorry to hear of it.

As you say, though, they died doing something they loved, and it sounds like they didn't suffer.

Prayers and peaceful thoughts are yours. I'm sorry for your grief, and that of others who knew them. Just horrible.
