Please hug your loved ones a little closer tonight..

I lost my teenage nephew last night...he had just turned 19, in a car accident...car hit a wall at and turned into a fireball, neither he or his friend had a chance...
Please hug your loved ones, you know know if it will be the last time you see them..

ETA..Everyone...thanks for your kind words...this has truly been a toll on the family. What has been worse is having the media camped out on the front of his parents house..
