Brian English, 19, a 2004 graduate of Bloomfield High School, died yesterday in an accident on Route 80 near Parsippany when a car his sister was driving crossed the median strip and was crushed by a bus in oncoming traffic. The 24-year-old sister, Jennifer, is in critical condition.
The accident briefly closed Route 80 in both directions. More details about the fatality in the Daily Record.
Brian was one of my son’s close friends. And while *I* didn’t know him well, I know that he was highly regarded by his peers! My heart aches for the English family and I pray this is the last of the fatal youth tragedies in Bloomfield!!! 🙁
