ALDEN, NY - The small community of Alden is a town with patriotic pride evident at every banner and flying flag but the hearts here are heavy for two graduates of Alden Central High School killed in a motorcycle accident early Sunday morning.
Deputies say Christopher Marchewka, 29, and his passenger Maureen O'Grady,29, both of Alden, were killed after Marchewka lost control of the motorcycle he was driving on Route 20-A in Wales Center.
"They had a lot of connections and a lot of people are going to miss both of them very much," said Nicole Ryan, who graduated from Alden High in 2000 with both of them.
Ryan described Marchewla like this; "easy to get along with, a good guy".
One of Marchewka's friends told 2 On Your Side that Marchewka enlisted in the military shortly after September 11, 2001 and served one tour of duty in Iraq. While there, a friend says Christopher stopped a vehicle with an I-E-D from entering an area full of U.S. military members. His comrade says he will be missed.
