The Darlington School community offers condolences to the family of sophomore Erika Binns who was killed in a single-car accident at approximately 10:30 p.m. last night. Erika, a day student and the daughter of Dr. Mike and Susan Black Binns of Marietta, had been on campus studying for exams.

According to Dr. Jim Hendrix, president, Erika was en route to Cedartown to spend the night with Brett and Lori Barton, parents of tenth-grader Tyler, in order to avoid having to drive back to Marietta.

Visitation will be held at Daniels Funeral Home in Rome from 4 to 6 p.m. on Wednesday afternoon. A funeral service will be held Thursday at 2 p.m. at Darlington's Morris Chapel, with the Rev. Don Black, St. James Episcopal Church, Cedartown, officiating. Family will receive friends at Home-on-the-Hill, the Darlington president's residence, following Thursday's funeral service.
