I MADE THIS PAGE IN MEMORY OF MY SISTER CHRISTINA LEE LEMON. WHO HAD 14 YEARS OLD WAS IN A AUTOMOBILE WITH PEOPLE WHO HAD BEEN DRINKING AND HER LIFE WAS TAKEN AWAY THAT NIGHT ON JULY 25, 2003.

LET ME INTRODUCE MYSELF MY NAME IS AMY BANKS AND CHRISTINA WAS MY STEP SISTER WHOM I LOVED VERY MUCH AND I WILL NEVER LET HER MEMORY DIE I PROMISE IT WILL ALWAYS CARRY ON! I HOPE BY SPREADING HER STORY AND MAKING MORE PEOPLE AWARE OF THE DANGERS OF DRINKING AND DRIVING I CAN PREVENT ANOTHER PERSON OR FAMILY TO HAVE TO GO THROUGH WHAT CHRISTINA DID AND WHAT ALL HER FAMILY & FRIENDS WENT THROUGH!

TO ALL THAT KNEW CHRISTINA WILL TELL YOU THAT HER SMILE COULD LIGHT UP ANY ROOM AND THAT SHE WAS THE LIFE OF THE PARTY! BUT HER LIFE WAS CUT SHORT DUE TO THE CARELESS MISTAKE A PERSON MADE WHEN THEY CHOOSE TO DRIVE DRUNK. THIS ALL SADLY TOOK PLACE ON THE NIGHT OF JULY 25, 2003. HER AND A FRIED WENT OUT WITH A COUPLE OF GUYS AND THEY ALL DRANK AND THEN THE 19 YEAR OLD BOY EDDIE MYERS MADE THE CHOICE TO DRIVE DRUNK AND ABOUT 12:05 AM THAT NIGHT THEY WERE GOING DOWN ZION ROAD AT HUBBARD ROAD WHEN HE FAILED TO NEGOTIATE A RIGHT CURVE AND LOST CONTROL OF HIS PICK UP TRUCK. THE TRUCK CROSSED THE ROADWAY IN A CLOCKWISE ROTATION AND THEN STRUCK A UTILITY POLE. THE TRUCK THEN WENT INTO A DITCH AND OVER TURNED AND EJECTED TWO OF THE PASSENGERS AND CHRISTINA HAPPENED TO BE ONE OF THEM. PLEASE ALL I ASK FROM EVERYONE PLEASE ALWAYS REMEMBER CHRISTINA AND WHAT HAPPENED TO HER AND NEVER DRINK AND DRIVE AND DON"T EVER LET YOUR FRIENDS DRINK AND DRIVE BECAUSE NO MATTER WHAT YOU SAY IT CAN HAPPEN TO YOU SO WHEN YOU GO TO PICK UP THEM KEYS AFTER DRINKING REMEMBER WHAT I SAID AND CHRISTINA'S FACE. YOU ARE NOT INVISIBLE IT CAN HAPPEN TO YOU OR ANYONE THAT YOU KNOW!

TO CHRISTINA I LOVE YOU SO MUCH BABY GIRL AND I MISS YOU JUST AS MUCH AS I DID THE DAY YOU LEFT IF NOT MORE. I KNOW YOU ARE LOOKING DOWN ON EVERYBODY AND I KNOW YOU WOULD WANT ME TO PUT YOUR STORY OUT THERE SO IT COULD PREVENT THIS FROM HAPPENING TO SOME ONE ELSE SO GUESS WHAT BABY GIRL THATS WHAT I AM DOING AND I PROMISE I WILL SEE THAT YOUR MEMORY ALWAYS LIVES ON! I LOVE YOU BABY GIRL AND YOU ARE ALWAYS ON MY MIND AND IN MY HEART!
