BOTHELL, Wash. - A memorial stands at the side of a Snohomish County road where two Lynnwood men were killed early Saturday morning.
Friends came to remember 21-year-old Brandon Norton and 20-year-old Ehlo Blacknall, who died in a car accident early Saturday morning on North Road in Bothell.
Steve Norton can chronicle his son Brandon's life by the different soccer jerseys.
"I've either coached him on every team he's been on or been at every game. I haven't missed a game since he was 8 years old, not one practice or game," he said.
Steve Norton has tried to reconstruct what happened after his son left a party.
"He'd actually taken two carloads of kids home," he said.
But it was on the third, final trip that the crash happened.
Twenty-year-old Trevor Moore and Tyler Gilbert, two other passengers in the car, were seriously injured and are in Harborview Medical Center.
His father acknowledges Brandon was likely driving too fast when he rounded the corner and slammed into a tree.
"It just breaks my heart that he's not here anymore," he said.
Friends say they don't know how they'll get over the loss.
"I'm still in shock, you never can imagine losing two best friends," said Brian James.
Investigators believe the car was traveling between 70 and 80 mph in a 35 mph zone when the car left the road.
