It was an extremely somber moment, as I too drove by and saw the black bag that encased the body of Mr. Andres Manuel Ortega. My heart sank, as well, as I realized how precious and fragile life is. May he rest in peace and my heart goes out to his family, as he life was cut unexpectedly short. Live life to the fullest and cherish every moment.

My heart sinks every time a cyclist is killed on the road. Makes me appreciate that I lived through my dreadful cycle crash - hit head on by a woman on a cell phone.
