May the good Lord have mercy on the victim's soul ,and may the good Lord grant comfort to the family and friends of the family

@trackrat religion is scary af. This poor person gets killed and y’all really saying “may the lord have mercy on their soul?”

Rest In Peace. Lord have mercy on his soul. Condolences for family members and true friends, who love and will miss the departed soul. Prayers going out for truck driver and family. No good person kills another person on purpose. Find out the cause or causes for the horrific accident. Deal with them…one at a time. Prices must be paid for accidents, too! Be safe out there.
