ROBERTSON County (April 2, 2010)-Texas Department of Public Safety officials say a tragic mid-afternoon rollover collision Thursday left one Central Texas woman dead.

Waco DPS dispatcher Scarborough told News 10 the accident happened at 4:30 p.m. Thursday on FM 2954 in rural Robertson County.

A 2005 Ford pickup truck was traveling northbound along FM 2954 when it drifted partially into the eastern roadside ditch, Scarborough said.

The driver overcorrected, causing the vehicle to roll several times before it came to a rest on its roof in the western roadside ditch, the dispatcher said

The driver, Jessica Dawn Corrigan, 19, of Marquez, was pronounced dead on the scene at 5:53 pm Thursday by Robertson County Justice of the Peace Keith Foltermann.

She was wearing a seatbelt at the time of the accident.

Corrigan’s body was taken to Hartfield-Ritter funeral home in Hearne.

I still miss you. I think of you every day, wishing you were here for me to talk to. I keep wondering how my life would be now if you hadn't gone. I miss you and love you very much.

I graduated with Jessi. I went to school with her for 3 years and i never saw her have a dull moment. I got the text at 8:30 PM April Fool's night.. to think the one girl that always smiled, got along with everyone, talented and beautiful could lose her life so young is astonishing. I always hear about girls like her dying and i think it's bull. theyre just making them look better but no... this was the real jessi. I really miss you jessi. I hope everthing is beautiful on your side of the fence
