I didn't just depend on that club as a kid, I volunteered there and would later work there when they added the new wing. I wish you the best of luck, that's an uphill battle if ever there was one.

I grew up very close to the hospital and somehow it's even worse today. mckeesport is a truly depressing place to be and the people who live there are generally just trying to scrape by. There is literally nothing in mckeesport to see or do.

You'd be much better served working there and living just about anywhere else. I cannot stress how rough and bad of an area it is. I say this as a dude who lived there the first 18 years of my life and attended all the schools. I have never seen a single thing get better there and just recently I learned the boys and girls club was closed. It's not a very well received hospital. It's the last place I'd choose anywhere nearby.

Man I hope he died on impact. Can you imagine getting hit, perhaps not even seeing it coming, and you're just suddenly and violently thrown airborne flipping about and falling 70+ feet? And all this at 3AM where if the driver didn't know they hit anything, and/or the bucket operator was working alone, you're just waiting to expire until someone finds you smeared on the street below.

Rough way to go, hope the job site operators catch hell for that.
