Tragic Death of Kim & Bette Nordberg

Below is an excerpt from a newspaper report on the death of our neighbors Kim and Bette Nordberg of 11323 136th Ave E, Puyallup 98374. It is a sickening read. 

A woman who allegedly killed two people in a car crash was ‘more concerned with retrieving her vape’ from the wreckage than for the victims, per court documents.
Michelle Renee Oster, 63, has been charged with causing two deaths and seriously injuring two more people amid a grisly collision in Washington earlier this month.
Prosecutors said Oster was ‘annoyed and dismissive’ at the scene of the crash, according to court documents seen by King5.com, and was even ‘in a hurry to get home’ after the fatal collision.
‘She appeared more concerned with retrieving her vape pen from her vehicle than the state of the victims,’ the documents read.
Oster allegedly ploughed into a vehicle on Southeast Enumclaw Chinook Road east of Seattle, killing Kim Davis Nordberg, 72, of Lakebay and his wife Bette Nordberg, 69, of Puyallup, on the morning of October 13.
