(KNZA)--Funeral services have been set for the Jackson Heights High School sophomore who was killed Friday afternoon in a two-vehicle wreck at the entrance to the road that leads to the school about 4 ½ miles north of Holton.
Services for 16-year-old Afton Burdick, of Circleville, will be Thursday morning at 10:30 at the Mercer Funeral Home in Holton, with burial following in the Circleville Cemetery.
The family will greet friends Wednesday evening from 6:00 to 7:30 at the funeral home.
Afton is survived by her mother, Lori; her father, Alan; and a sister, Bailey.
The Kansas Highway Patrol says Burdick was attempting to turn onto U.S. 75 Highway from 266th Road when her car was struck by a northbound semi tractor-trailer around 3:30 Friday afternoon.
Burdick was pronounced dead at the scene of the wreck.
The semi driver, from Winnipeg, Manitoba, was transported to the Holton Community Hospital with what were believed to be non-life threatening injuries.
