Pasted in from local news report:
By Pamela Pérez, Palm Beach Post Staff Writer
Wednesday, November 19, 2003
BOCA RATON -- When he wasn't behind the wheel of his Dodge SRT-4, Andrew Chin Shue was thinking about it.
"He loved cars," said Michele Chin Shue, his mother.
He died Monday behind the wheel of his silver sports car.
"Somebody said he was weaving in and out of traffic," his mother said. "I tell him all the time, 'No racing.' "
Before the Palm Beach Community College sophomore could make the turn off Glades Road into the school entrance, Shue's eastbound vehicle veered across median. He collided with two people in a 2001 Toyota Sequoia. Driver Alexander Williams, 44, of Pompano Beach, and his passenger, Irine Palmer, 65, of Boca Raton are still recovering from their injuries.
Shue died at the scene around 6:34 p.m. He suffered a fatal head injury from the crash, according to his parents.
"No, no, he didn't suffer," his father Marlon Chin Shue told a stream of callers paying their respects on Tuesday.
Friends have mourned Shue by making a memorial site on Glades Road with skateboards and flowers. Members of his car club are expected to gather in remembrance on Thursday.
Authorities are still investigating the accident.
The couple said their son was a safe driver. He even had his seat belt fastened before the accident, they said.
The 19-year-old subscribed to a Web site forum and car club for Dodge SRT-4 aficionados. And he had just ordered a $200 part to modify the 2003 model with his father's help.
Shue had a level head and focused on his international studies major, his parents said. He planned to transfer to Florida Atlantic University in June. He balanced an evening class schedule with a full-time assistant manager position at the Regal Shadowood 16 movie theater, a job he held for almost three years.
"He was like a brother and a friend," said employee Shoshana Abramson.
On the evening Shue left for class, he and his mother passed each other in their cars and waived goodbye as they each turned the corner near their house.
"I was coming in and he was going out,'' she recalled. "He told me he was going to eat his dinner when he came home. I had it warming for him. Then the police came and knocked at the door. We never ate."
