"Angela Zodrow recounted the moment she received the call about her son, saying, 'He said, 'You need to get here.' And I was like, 'Really? Okay, is it bad?' He said, 'Yeah. Yeah. It's bad.'"},{"
In June, Angela Zodrow received devastating news that her son, Emmet, had been hit by a car while riding his bike. The incident occurred when an 85-year-old driver, Jean Woolley, mistakenly pressed the accelerator instead of the brake. Emmet was riding on the sidewalk near a library when the minivan jumped the curb. Woolley was not charged with a crime but received citations. Nine months later, Angela continues to speak of Emmet in the present tense, reflecting on his vibrant personality and love for life.
