I worked with Ondrea for a short period when she was working at the Black Angus in Lakewood. She was always so friendly and just an easy person to talk to and get along with. I know that everyone that worked with us at Black Angus would definitely say the same. I will keep her family in my prayers.

[The Family]

We thank you for the kind words about Ondrea. She will always be missed and never forgotten.

[PRAYERS AND SYMPATHY]

My mother and brother send their condolences to the Family of Ondrea. They hit the pole behind my mothers residence and my brother was one of the first to arrive at the scene with other neighbors. After hearing the fatal crash. All they can say is it was a tradgedy and they could not sleep at all that night. If is sad that she could not be helped and are sending prayers to all her loved ones.
The city has to re-evaluate Pathfinder road it is a raceway and many lives could be saved.
Sincerely,
The family in Rowland Heights

Its crazy how much we take for granted those simple moments we have in life. Drea taught me so much to life and her jobs not finished. These past couple days every litle thing i do, i try to think how She wouldve handled the situation and Its NOT EASY! Shed take the sweater off her back for a bum on the street.
I love u! And think about you every hour of the day! My bestfriend.

[the family of ondrea]

I recently had the privledge of meeting Ondrea on three seperate occasions at the Black Angus Restaurant in Lakewood. I can't remember meeting anyone as nice as Ondrea, not to mention her wonderful smile that will be etched into my memory forever.

[Victoria -Cerritos BA]

I can still see Ondrea's smile in my head and that will never fade because she made that big of an impression on my life. I looked forward to working with her because I knew I was gonna laugh or just hanging out with her a spoons after our long nights a Black Angus was such good times. Ondrea will be truly missed by me and in my eyes Cerritos Black Angus lost their team captian. My prayers are with all of her family and friends!

I am soo sorry for your lost... I seen Eli and Ondrea that nite at the resturant before their accident... I just can't believe it happen. My prayers are with you and your family.....

I was Ondrea's Co-Counselor her first year at camp. She was amazing! I was so happy to see her fall in love with the camp I grew up with. She not only touched the hearts of our campers but basically everyone at camp. Her enthusiasm - so contagious - and her positive disposition was infectious. I even became a better artist just being influenced by her. Even though I am 15 yrs older than her, I saw her as my peer. She was so eloquent and mature for her age. I believe God had misplaced an Angel, for our benefit. I will keep her spirit close to me for I was given the privilege of living with an Angel for the week. Rest in Peace, my beautiful friend.

[John from Lakewood]

I knew Ondrea briefly through my visits to the Black Angus in Lakewood. Everytime she would walk by, she would catch your attention - not only through her physical beauty, but her easy going happy attitude. The last time I saw her, I was leaving the Black Angus. I said "Ondrea, give me a hug bye!" She reached out and hugged me........I didn't want to let her go.

To both families involed in this accident..
did you investigate the place they were at when they were drinking? They were some under age right? That is Crazy. I think you should.

[ONDREAs MOTHER - ROBIN]

There is a guest book for her at www.legacy.com for all who wish to sign it.

She is so very beautiful and loved by all. A friend of mine told me today that "it was like no matter who she came in contact with, anyone at all, she would touch your life, like there was something so very special about her" Her Sunshine that she blessed everyone with. At her services it was said that "God misplaced an angle for 20 years." This is so very true.

[friend of family]

I sit here in disbelief that the family of the driver have not posted have not sent flowers or even said one word. makes you wonder what kind of people they are just makes it so much easier to sue the _ _ _ _ out of them...
