Two teens who died in a car accident Friday on a rain-slickened road developed a deep friendship in a short time, family members said. The young women, students at Lone Star College in Tomball, had friends in common and some classes together, Walker said. Donlon's mother, Theresa Donlon, said the two met through activities at Lone Star College, including Diamond Dolls, a club associated with the school's baseball team. Walker, who had a passion for singing, was studying music and wanted to be a worship leader, her father said. Both Van Walker and Theresa Donlon said the stretch of road where the vehicles collided is dangerous and has been the scene of many previous wrecks, including other fatalities.
