Emotions were raw as students, parents, teachers and others within the community comforted each other.

“Yesterday was our halfway point of senior year, like we were officially halfway done with senior year and she won’t be able to finish like the rest of us and it’s really sad,” Fairborn High School senior, Madison Hunter, said. “It’s like everyone knows we need each other and they just all come together when needed.”

“We’re going to be processing this for a while because again it was just too short, she had so much ahead of her,” Fairborn High School Teacher, Michelle Lee, told News Center 7′s Brandon Lewis at the vigil on Saturday night.

People who knew Lily said that they will remember her kindness, willingness to help others and her humor.

“She was hilarious, she was very, very smart, kind-hearted, pure, she had a big, big impact on everyone in fairborn,” Fairborn High School senior, Kaitlyn Lafountain, said.

“She brought light to anywhere and to anything that she did, she was that light like I said that attracted the goodness out of people,” Lee said. “She was a gem, one of the good ones.”

The crash happened around 11:50 a.m. involving a Volkswagen Beetle and a dump truck on Dayton-Xenia Road and Trebein Road.

A preliminary investigation found the Beetle was traveling east on Dayton-Xenia Road when it entered the intersection and was hit by a dump truck traveling south on Trebein Road, state troopers said in a media release issued Friday afternoon.

Troopers tell News Center 7 two other teens were in the car and went to the hospital.

We do not know their conditions or if they are also Fairborn students.
