Griffin-Burkman Memorial
This mosaic was created by DUI Victims Voice (using photos from Flickr.com) in memory of Bethany Griffan-Burkman and her children who were killed by a drunk driver.
From Bethany's friend Nancy:
Bethany and I have been Gymboree fanatics and loopies on Yahoo for years. She was a spirited and spiritual women who loved her family. She was very articulate and even though we had different views on politics at times I always respected her and was impressed how how open she was to debating subjects she believed in. Drunk driving affects everyone. I hope that this can help someone. I haven't been able to stop thinking about them since I heard about it yesterday. What a tragedy, what a loss. I prayer for both the families.
Killed at the scene of the crash were Bethany Griffin, 36; her children Lacie Burkman, 7; Haley Burkman, 10; and 2-month-old Vadi Griffin, all of Parkville, Md.; and her stepdaughter Jordan Griffin, 10, of Redford Township.

When does the state take away the car keys? / Stop the subsidy of drunk driving
"Drunk driving kills heroes, too. My son, Matt, was in his third year at the U.S. Naval Academy in 2001 when he was killed while home on leave in Livermore by a drunk driving with a suspended license.
Before you sympathize with me for the loss of my son, consider the fact that every Californian faces the threat of drunken driving every time they use our roadways.
According to new data from the U.S. Department of Transportation, California's families are sharing the road with 310,971 drunk drivers with three or more DUI convictions, and of those, 44,210 with five or more convictions. In 2006 alone, drunk drivers killed 1,276 of our states citizens."

You might think it would apply to 42-year-old Bob Kaufman of Sioux Falls. Last month he had his day in court for his 11th drunk driving offense since 1989.
But Kaufman received 6 months in the county jail with work release, and an extra 6 months for a different crime.
