17-year-old completes dad’s bucket list after her father is killed: ‘I had to try’
In 2003, Laura Carney’s 54-year-old father Mickey was killed by a 17-year-old girl who was using her phone while driving. Laura began to advocate about the dangers of “distracted driving,” but that wasn’t her only project to honor her father.
Their father had completed just 5, including “Do a comedy monologue in a nightclub,” “See a World Series game live,” and “Help my parents enjoy their retirement.” “I knew what I was doing seemed impossible. But it was the main reason I had to try,” Carney writes inLaura doggedly made her way through the list, including “Going to the Super Bowl,” the Rose Bowl and seeing the NCAA basketball finals. She travelled to New Orleans, Las Vegas, London, and Vienna.
Some she barely completed, her “Surf in the Pacific Ocean” consisting of 2 seconds atop a board at a Los Angeles beach. “Play … Guitar” meant learning a four-note riff of a Queen song and a couple sounds from the theme of “Jaws.” Her “Make money on the stock market” was checked after accruing a ten-cent profit.
