Non-notable / Wikipedia is not a memorial -- a sad story, to be sure, but not every untimely death is worthy of inclusion. Pop Secret 00:45, 15 December 2006 (UTC)
 * Weak Undecided. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Hotentot (talk • contribs) 00:49, 15 December 2006 (UTC).
 * Weak delete. Despite references, seems non-notable. Touching story though. "Weak Undecided"? What the heck does that mean? And how is it useful? &mdash;  Ed Gl  01:00, 15 December 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete per EdGl--M8v2 01:20, 15 December 2006 (UTC)
 * Weak keep Redirect/merge to Bear Camp Road. Article is not a memorial, but is instead a short bit of historical perspective, with some literary merit.  Worth keeping as a stub. Yaf 02:49, 15 December 2006 (UTC)
 * Suggest that article be merged into Bear Camp Road article. Yaf 05:04, 15 December 2006 (UTC)
 * I could co-sign a redirect. Pop Secret 09:25, 15 December 2006 (UTC)


 * Delete Definitely sad... but otherwise non-notable. Wikipedia is not a news site or a memorial site. jaydj 03:19, 15 December 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete The story is sad, but nonetheless, Wikipedia is not a memorial site.  T   h    e    R    S    J  03:23, 15 December 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete biography of a non-notable person. I feel no sympathy for him whatsoever, but that's another story. Danny Lilithborne 03:55, 15 December 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete - Certainly an interesting memorial, but, by policy, Wikipedia is not a memorial site. (see 1.8) Crystallina 04:37, 15 December 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete per above. MER-C 05:03, 15 December 2006 (UTC)

 * Delete Non-notable person. Wikipedia is not a memorial site. Edison 16:09, 15 December 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete Wikipedia is neither an obituary or a memorial site, and the details of this tragedy are already covered in Bear Camp Road. I'm alright with a redirect.-- danntm T C 17:34, 15 December 2006 (UTC)
 * Merge and delete Possibly wikinews if current. Seems like an old story.  Merge into Bear Camp Road. TonyTheTiger 19:39, 15 December 2006 (UTC)
 * Redirect to Bear Camp Road. Moncrief 22:42, 15 December 2006 (UTC)
 * Merge into Bear Camp Road. Its notable material in the debate whether to stay with trapped vehicle or try to walk to a town. --MarsRover 22:16, 16 December 2006 (UTC)
 * Merge The attention drawn by the plight of the Kim family on the same road makes it relevant. Pjbflynn 00:45, 18 December 2006 (UTC)
 * Merge or redirect With Bear Damp Road. Not notable in of itself, but details of the incident in the other article would be worthwhile. R.E. Freak 23:10, 18 December 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete per nom. WMMartin 19:37, 20 December 2006 (UTC)
