Non-notable police officer who was killed in a traffic collision in 1998. Google News Archive returns many results; however, this should be deleted because the subject notable for only one event, her death. Wikipedia is not a memorial. I cannot find any coverage of her before she died. Cunard (talk) 05:59, 7 September 2009 (UTC)
 * Delete - I agree, sorry to say. This has become an all to common an occurrence. Though considered notable 50years ago, has become just a news item for a day or two, and only a local news item at that.  And Wikipedia is not a news service.  Typically I would have said merge into the Ventura County Sheriff's Department, however, these officers are alreay listed there and memorlised.  ShoesssS Talk 06:37, 7 September 2009 (UTC)

 * Delete per WP:N/CA. Very closely related to Articles for deletion/Bryce Patten. I'm OK with the mention at Ventura County Sheriff's Department and would not object to a redirect.Location (talk) 07:38, 12 September 2009 (UTC)
