It was 7 a.m. Oct. 30 and then just like that, Jared and his little brother Jaison were gone. He was 17 and Jaison was 15.
Police are still investigating what happened as Jared steered his Honda Accord onto Harbins Road and a driver in a PT Cruiser slammed into them.
The driver, a 44-year-old Bethlehem man, sustained non-life threatening injuries.
Jared died shortly after the crash, and his brother, Jaison, was pronounced dead later that evening.
Who can say they know what that’s like? It’s hard enough losing one child. Imagine losing two all at once.
On Monday, two days after his sons were laid to rest, Paul Brown still didn’t know what to make of it. All he knew for sure was that he and his family were making it through the valley on the wings of prayer.
“It’s going to take awhile,” he said, his voice trailing. “It’s going to be a rough road.”
Paul Brown is hoping something good will come from the tragedy.
