Veronica Dubose, DC Metro train crash victimDubose’s stepmother said the 29-year-old worked and went to school in the evenings to support two young children.
YaVonne Dubose said her stepdaughter Veronica was heading to her first day of school Monday for certification classes that might have allowed her to work 9-to-5 hours as a certified nursing assistant.
Her 8-year-old son, Raja, and 18-month-old daughter, Ava, were her top priority, her stepmother said.
“She was a trooper,” Dubose said. “If she was on the side of the road with a flat tire, she would change it herself before she would ask for help.” – AP
