Robert Smallwood and Andrea Hill were riding through the south side of town when a quiet Sunday evening abruptly turned fatal.
Smallwood, 62, and Hill, 58, were traveling together on a motorcycle near Pleasure Ridge Park just after 6 p.m.
They were making their way through the intersection of Greenbelt Highway and Greenwood Road when a Kia Sorento struck their bike.
The impact threw both riders off the motorcycle and onto the road, leaving them both with severe, critical injuries.
Emergency crews arrived at the scene shortly after the crash and immediately began providing emergency medical care.
Paramedics rushed Smallwood and Hill to University of Louisville Hospital for urgent trauma treatment.
Despite medical personnel doing everything they could to save them, both riders died from their injuries at the hospital.
Friends and family members are now left dealing with the sudden loss of two people who were a constant part of their lives.
