Mass. teen killed in Florida crash 'was magnetic,' wanted to go to college in Charleston
A Carlisle teenager killed in a crash in Florida after Easter was remembered for his independence, creativity and for being a compassionate person, his family wrote in his obituary. At around 9:28 p.m. on April 21, James McIntosh, Hannah Wasserman, Maisey O'Donnell and a third teenage girl were in an SUV driving west on Route 98 in Walton County, near Panama City Beach, Florida, when they were struck by a tractor-trailer trying to make a U-turn in a paved median, according to a Florida Highway Patrol report obtained by MassLive. The SUV crossed the median and the highway's eastbound side before stopping along the woodline, police said. Wasserman and McIntosh died, while O'Donnell later died at the hospital, Concord-Carlisle Regional School District Superintendent Dr. Laurie Hunter said in a statement obtained by WCVB-TV. The third teenage girl was last reported in critical condition. McIntosh, also known as Jimmy, was born on March 30, 2007, in Boston, his family wrote. Until he was 4 years old, he lived in Milford before his parents moved to his mother's childhood home in Carlisle. From kindergarten through high school, McIntosh made friends with his fellow students, with teachers and with other parents, "never afraid to interact with anyone and had a confidence and spirit that few children have at that age," his family wrote. He 'was magnetic, filling all the hearts he touched with love and joy... incredibly independent, creative, intellectually curious and enviably fashionable," his family continued. 'He loved to make pottery, shop, travel, and especially spend time with his family and friends... He loved a good adventure.' McIntosh fell in love with Charleston, South Carolina, where he hoped to go to college in the fall, his obituary read. McIntosh is survived by his parents Liz and Scott McIntosh; his maternal grandparents; his paternal grandfather; multiple aunts, uncles, cousins, great aunts and uncles and extended family members. McIntosh was preceded in death by his paternal grandmother Nancy McIntosh (Kelly). His family invited friends and relatives to gather for visitation at the Dee Funeral Home at 27 Bedford St. on Sunday, May 4, from 2-6 p.m. A memorial service will be held at the First Religious Society, 27 School St. in Carlisle at 4 p.m. on May 5. A reception will then immediately follow and will be streamed online. McIntosh will be privately interred at Green Cemetery in Carlisle.
