Dear Editor:
Recently, a former resident of Sullivan, Natalie Mauck McDowell, was killed in a car accident that simply didn’t have to happen. She and her daughter-in-law, Sarah, were hit by a person who was ticketed for not stopping at a stop sign.
So many people’s lives have been irrevocably changed by the failure of one person to take the time to stop at an intersection: the McDowells and extended family have lost a wife, mom, sister, aunt, and sister-in-law; co-workers and neighbors have lost a friend; Monticello students have lost a school nurse; members of the Methodist Church have lost a youth minister. All because a thoughtless person couldn’t take the minute or two that it takes to stop at a stop sign.
