Sorry to hear of your loss. Glad your daughter is going to heal.

My '84 300SD gave it's life, for my daughter's on the 4th..
If you scroll down to 6/4, you'll see her on fire..

My daugther was hit, spun, reflected into a guardrail... And the car caught fire..
...my daughter said she didn't even stall.. For a minute, I felt like I could drive away..
The accident is still under investigation.. (Meaning no one has been cited).
My g/f witnessed the accident.. Katie wasn't moving-- so I'm hard pressed to believe she'll be cited.
I know we go thru this "whenever" one of us loses a car, tragically...
Does having proof of parts, service-- recent paint/body work do anything, but remind us of how much we put into our cars?? I have pictures of her being taken to bare metal, and body restored last spring, for instance.. My paint and body guy, I think would be more than willing to tell them I paid him a king's fortune..
My daughter is bruised up good, and has a fibula (small bone in the calf) fracture.. She's on crutches, but VERY MUCH ALIVE... For that, I thank God..
...and Agnes.
I will miss her-- I have an '85 300SD (rustbucket) thatI was going to strip for parts...
I will have another OM617 powered SOMETHING.. I fell in love with that old "tractor motor" (as I've called it.)
My daughter helped me "change out" a brake rotor last week..
Going to miss you Agnes.
Guess heaven needs Mercedes diesels.. Hope to see you again, there! :)
...no trees were injured in the delivery of this email.
Some electrons WERE inconvenienced, however.
Toward freedom,
