Kappa Pledges (Alabama) Killed in Accident
 

Two Kappa pledges were killed in a car accident yesterday on their way to the beach for Labor Day weekend. Their car flipped over, the girls were airlifted to a Mobile hospital and died after surgery. Please pray for these families, the Kappa pledge class and the entire Kappa Kappa Gamma chapter at Alabama.

OMG! My thoughts and prayers go out to these girls' families and the Kappas.

Oh, how perfectly awful! My sympathies to their families, sisters, and friends.

How sad! Our thoughts are with our Gamma Pi sisters.

What a horrible tragedy! The girls & their loved ones are in my thoughts.

My sympathies and thoughts go out to their families during this terrible time. :(

What horrible news! My thoughts and prayers are with the Gamma Pi chapter.

Sincere sympathies to the Alabama Kappa Chapter and the famillies of the two pledges. What a terrible tragedy!

That is so awful :( Deepest condolences to the families of the girls and the Kappa chapter.

Oh my gosh!! That is terrible, they are in my thoughts.

Oh how horribly sad for everyone -- the families, sisters, friends, even the school. I will most certainly pray for all of them.

My sister said that apparently another Kappa pledge got into a fender-bender earlier in the day, so when she got the news she was just sure they got it wrong... until she found out there was a second accident.

My thoughts and prayers go out to all of my sister's sisters.

This is just horrible. My mother lives in Mobile and called to tell us about it this morning...can't hardly believe it. Sincerest condolences go out to the families, friends, and the Alabama Kappa sisters and pledges. Such a tragic loss.

I thought the same thing at first. My daughter and her Theta sis were going to Atlanta yesterday and ended up sitting on the interstate for a few hours. She called me when they got up to the wreck because some Kappas were on the side of the road, along w/some ATOs. Fortunately, no one appeared to be hurt in that wreck. My heart and prayers go out to the families and friends of these girls.

My heart cries out for these young ladies, their parents, and their fellow sisters.

God Bless them!

Oh my God. This is awful. My heart goes out to their families.

This is heartbreaking. My thoughts and prayers go out to their families, friends and sisters.

That is terrible news. My deepest condolences to their family, friends, and the entire Kappa chapter.

This is unbearably tragic - my condolences to the family, friends, and Kappa sisters of the victims.

This is so awful. We just cannot take anything for granted. This should have been the happiest time in the lives of these young women, newly pledged to Kappa. My sincere condolences to their families, friends and Kappa sisters. Go hug your kids right now!

This is a tragedy. My sympathy goes out to the families and to the sisters of Kappa Kappa Gamma.

I write this with tears in my eyes. I am so, so sad about these young ladies fate. My sympathies to all who knew them. Here is a link to a story about it...

It breaks all of our hearts. Let's also pray that those family members the authorities are still trying to reach are contacted quickly and with sensitivity. God bless those sweet Bama Kappas and their new pledge class.

Such a tragedy. My thought and prayers are with the Kappas and their families.

Cosign all the above, wishing peace and comfort for their parents, families, friends and sisters.

Was the 22 year old that was killed also a pledge?

The names have not yet been released, but it is my understanding that they are both pledges.

They are both pledges. They are listed on the Bama website in the Kappa pledge class. The names may not yet have been released to the public, but the text messages went out early this morning to my daughter.

That is so sad. A young lady I use to babysit for is a Kappa pledge a Bama. I will be praying for everyone involved in this tragedy.

Many of the Kappas had already arrived in Atlanta for the Bama-Clemson game when they received the news. That is where my Bama Kappa is. It is very touching as a Kappa Momma to see the loving posts that are being left for the girls. I am sure that it will mean the world to all of them that all of you are reaching out to them.

Sisterhood sometimes transcends the rituals that make each house unique and unites us into one family.

How tragic. My heart and prayers go out to their family, Greek family and friends.

OMG that is awful. My prayers go out to the family of all the girls. I can't imagine being the two girls in the other vehicle that watched this accident occur!

This is awful. My sincere condolences to the families, friends and Kappas.

I wholeheartedly agree with you. My sympathy is with the Kappas, and those that knew the girls.

I asked my sister the same question and her comment was that it is possible that the girl may have had identification on her that said she was 22, but she is a freshman and not 22.

Both of the girls who were killed in the accident were freshmen Kappa pledges. One was from Alabama, the other from Texas. It is now believed that the driver fell asleep at the wheel causing the car to swerve out of control and flip. The girls in the car behind this car were also Kappa pledges and friends of the girls killed. The out reach on this has been incredible. Thank you.

Please let me know if there is anything that can be done to help console the parents and sisters.

Oh so sad! I know that the chapter was soo excited to have these wonderful girls in their lives.

I'm watching the Bama game now and sad to think that there was such tragedy on the way.

A new release from a Mobile paper corrects the Texas girl's age. http://blog.al.com/live/2008/08/two_...bama_fres.html

OMG how horrible! My thoughts are with the families, sisters and friends :(
