CONWAY — While Halloween can be a time of revelry, the father of a Conway teen killed 29 years ago in a drunk driving crash is urging teenagers to use their heads before getting behind the wheel or into a car with their friends.
Three Kennett High School students were killed on Oct. 24, 1992, in Parsonsfield, Maine, when the car they were riding in went off the road and struck a tree. Killed were Adam Hounsell, 16, Katherine McSherry, 15, and Melissa Monahan, 15, all of Conway. They were coming home from a party, said news reports at the time.
