Sorry to hear that. Hope that you can overcome this difficult time.
My condolences.

 

Very sorry for you and her family, very lovely looking girl and I can guess from your obvious pain a nice girl and good friend as well.

 

We all at PHUN wish the same for you and her family

 

Thanks for your support guys that means alot to me at this time, I will miss hanging out with her at the OU home games. I will post a few more pics of her if you all dont mind, it is the lest i can do for her since there isnt too much I can do at this point.


The tragedy of life is not that it ends so soon, but that we wait so long to begin it. Sadly she was just beginning life.

 

R.I.P.
My Condolences...

 

Sorry about your friend. It's so sad when people die young.

EDMOND, Oklahoma -- A missing OU student was found dead inside her wrecked silver Jetta by Edmond police Sunday.

The silver 2002 Volkswagen Jetta, belonging to Julia Gilbert, was found upside down in a creek bed near Waterloo and Morgan Road in Kingfisher County at about 3 p.m. Sunday. A passerby saw the car and notified authorities.

According to the police report, the 21-year-old went off the road for an unknown reason and her car overturned off a bridge. She was pinned inside the vehicle and died due to injuries sustained from the crash.

Police say it was lucky anyone saw the car at all because of where it landed in the ravine.

"The underside of the car is all you can see and it was the gray under side of the car and it just blended in with the area around it," said Edmond Police spokesperson Glynda Chu.

Edmond police, the Civil Air Patrol, and over 100 volunteers had been searching for Julia Gilbert since Friday.

She had last seen at about 3:30 a.m. Friday, leaving a friend's house in the 600 block of Belle Air Avenue in Edmond. Police had tracked her last cell phone call near MacArthur Boulevard and Covell Road around Deer Creek High School.

The investigation has been handed over to the Oklahoma Highway Patrol.

Once it was determined the car was Julia's and she was inside, the tragedy began to sink in for family and friends at scene.

"All of a sudden you realize what you're looking at and you hope it's not that and it is," said Cheryl Coy, who helped pass out missing person flyers for Julia Gilbert. "After a few minutes it sank in. It was actually comforting to know now the family knows."

Questions still remain over how Gilbert ended up near Deer Creek. Friends and family say she was headed toward her parent's house in north Edmond after she left her friend's house and the drive should have only taken 10 minutes. Instead, she ended up in Kingfisher County over 15 miles in the opposite direction.

Julia's family said she was on new pain medication to treat her Lyme disease and they fear it may have disoriented her on her drive home.

Julia Gilbert was a senior at OU. She was scheduled to graduate in May.

I'm very sorry for your loss. It's always a very hard thing when a kid that young dies. It just doesn't seem fair. My heart and prayers go out to you and your family and her's.

 

Amy I am very sorry for your loss. No words that I can say right now can relieve your pain. Just remember the good times that you have had with your Friend and one day you will be reunited with her again.

Remember that in times of pain you can rely on your Friends and Family to get through this troubling time.

 

I tried to report him as well, but it wont let me.

 

I'm sorry for your loss,... ...so tragic

 

Not much more that I can say but to repeat what everyone else has said. I am very sorry about this and wish we could do magic and move back to a previous time and prevent this from happening but I can't. Many condolences and love to her family and friends.....

 

I'm sorry to hear...

 

Great tribute, my condolences to everyone that knew her

It is indeed a tragic ending to a young life. I had a friend who died in a motorcycle crash 3 years ago when she was just 17. worked at a store and all of us customers loved that girl, would of wanted her to be our daughter, niece, etc. same as your friend . Life has some senseless moments and the pics drive that reality home. My condolences.
