Mom Killed In Trampoline Accident
ABC 7 Denver ^ | July 16, 2007

Posted on 07/16/2007 1:42:35 PM PDT by SubGeniusX

FORT COLLINS, Colo. -- A Fort Collins native who died in a freak trampoline accident is being laid to rest Monday in Loveland.

Sarah Comstock, 32, died in the accident last Thursday.

Details haven't been released.

She was a 1993 graduate of Rocky Mountain High School, and had worked as a server and an accountant at Rio Grande Mexican Restaurant since that year.

Her manager at the restaurant told the Fort Collins Coloradoan that Comstock was a high energy person who loved her children and who worked hard to get them whatever they needed.

She lived most of her life in Fort Collins, but moved to Loveland 10 years ago.

Survivors include two daughters, her father Chester, of Thornton, and her mother, Eva Seyboth of Bonn, Germany.

My husband and grandsons just put one together yesterday morning. It has a net — very sorry to hear about this young woman.

I always had one as a kid. Never worried about broken necks.

Course we road bicycles down the road wide open with no shoes and no shirt and such reckless things. Its a wonder we survived past 10.

Well, I always figured from an early age that the thing were deathtraps: users fall at high speeds, often in out-of-control orientations, on to a device with a hard metal outer frame.

Also, I would wish that FReepers wouldn't use this as an opportunity for puns. After all, someone who has done -nothing- wrong has now died, leaving behind grieving children and a husband.

Trampoline injuries - sure, pun away.

Death, with no overriding "Darwinian"-level stupidity? Let's stay classy, please.

We had one growing up as well -- didn't notice that they were good exercise until today when my grandsons talked me into getting on the thing.

Haven't tried a flip yet, my stand-sit-stand bounce was a little weak.

Those mini models that you run and jump onto and then off onto padding are very dangerous to kids.

I’m just glad to see someone else had the same thought. Prayers for the family.

It doesn’t say anything about leaving behind a husband, does it? Just kids and her parents.
