    Tragedy
    One person from my firm who works in the 300 Madison office died in the crash. She leaves behind a husband and young son.

    This is about half a mile away from my uncle’s house on Fairlane Drive in Clarence Center.

    My cousin called me last night to tell me about it soon after it happened.

    My prayers remain with them all, and their loved ones.
