High Noon: Why?
Several times a week I drive past a memorial to Andrew Rosell. The red floral remembrance on
the corner of Magnesium Road and Nevada Street marks the place where the 16-year-old was struck and killed by a city recycling truck. It’s been two years since the accident, but the silent tribute offers evidence that Rosell is deeply missed. I remember his death vividly, because he attended the same high school as my sons, and the news of his passing shook his classmates. Teenagers often feel invincible. Death in a crosswalk on a beautiful spring day seems impossible. Yet in an instant, a family was robbed of a son, a brother, a grandson. Why?/
