Here is my speech for the MADD Tie One on for Safety Campaign kickoff press conference in Alexandria, VA, on December 21, 2010. I tell Nathan's story and how the decisions of a drunk driver ruined our holidays, and all days, for the rest of our lives.
Have a fun, but safe New Year's!
On Tuesday, June 5, 2007, my brother Nathan Marti, a uniformed Diplomatic Security officer at the State Department, was riding his motorcycle to work on 395-N into Washington, DC. He was struck head on and killed instantly by a drunk driver going the wrong way. Nathan was only 25 years old.
