Grieving Boyfriend's Social Media Post Goes Viral

REDMOND, OR -- A 24-year old Redmond woman was killed in a crash south of Redmond, earlier this week, and now a Facebook post from her grieving boyfriend has gone viral. Brandon Forseth posted a picture Wednesday of three Christmas stockings - labeled "Brandon," "Kylee" and "Baby." On top is a sonogram photo. 

 

He writes, “You made me promise not to announce our baby to the world until 20 weeks” and he goes on to describe how Kylee Bruce was 18 weeks pregnant when she died Tuesday.
 
According to investigators, the Redmond woman lost control while passing on Highway 97, near Tomahawk Ave., Tuesday evening. She crossed into oncoming traffic and struck two other vehicles. Two other drivers were injured in the crash; Kylee Bruce was pronounced dead at the scene. 
 
Forseth’s post has been shared 160,000 times. As of Thursday morning, a GoFundMe page had raised more than $16,000 to help cover funeral expenses.
