Becky, I am so sorry for the loss of Corinne to your family. It's so hard to hit these anniversaries and realize how time is passing so quickly. When I was a child growing up at home my older sister was killed by a drunk driver at the age of 16. My poor parents. May God comfort you and your family as you remember Corinne.
