bad news from France and the States

My buddy Dominique wrote to tell me that his father's two brothers passed away in fairly rapid succession: one this past December, and another this past February. I never met Dominique's paternal uncles; I met only Oncle Charles, on his mother's side, back in 1986 and later in the 1990s, when Dom got married.

The teenaged grand-nephew of one of my online friends was killed in a one-car accident when the vehicle he was in (driven by someone else) hydroplaned and struck a tree. Funeral arrangements are discussed here. The kid's name was also Kevin. There's a brief news article about the crash here.
