A classmate of a Waukesha West High School student killed in a crash Friday has been issued a citation that says she failed to yield the right of way while making a turn, Waukesha police said Monday.

West High student Kallie Gosh, 18, of Genesee, died Friday of multiple injuries, according to the Waukesha County medical examiner's office.

She was a passenger in a 1995 Toyota Camry driven by classmate Kate R. Robertson, 17, of Waukesha, police Capt. Mark Stigler said. Robertson was traveling east on Highway 59 and attempted to turn left onto Fox River Parkway when her car was struck by a westbound 1998 Saturn driven by another classmate, Max Baysinger, 18, of Genesee. The crash occurred about 3 p.m. Friday.

Foreign exchange student Xiomara Alfaro, 18, was in the back seat of Robertson's car. Originally from Costa Rica, she has been staying with the Gosh family. All four students were taken to hospitals. Gosh and Alfaro were taken to Froedtert Hospital in Wauwatosa. Gosh was pronounced dead at 3:57 p.m. Alfaro was treated for a fractured leg, Stigler said.

Baysinger and Robertson each had minor injuries, he said.

Robertson was issued a citation charging that she failed to yield the right of way when making a left turn, Stigler said.

Gosh lived her life surrounded by music and friends, her father, Kevin Gosh, said Monday.

"We even shared some of the same taste in music," he said. They were both fans of The Doors. Her iPod was a constant companion, he said.

Gosh described his daughter as someone with a kind heart who cared about the environment, people and animals, especially her dogs, Kasha and Kramer.

Band director Dan Duffy said Monday that she was a dedicated student who was always surrounded by other good students. She was a four-year band member, playing the alto-saxophone, and was a member of the Cadets of the Waukesha West Marching Band. She also participated in the symphonic winds and percussion groups, the before-school jazz band and the saxophone choir, he said.

"She was a fun-loving student who always had a smile on her face," Duffy said. "She will be missed."

Duffy described the mood at school Monday as one of sadness. "We need some time to deal with the loss and allow students to deal with the loss," he said.

In addition to her father, Gosh is survived by her mother, Kayla Gosh, and her sister, Karsen.

Visitation will be from 4 to 8 p.m. Wednesday at Randle-Dable Funeral Home, 1110 S. Grand Ave. A memorial service will begin at 7 p.m.

Waukesha West has had to face other serious accidents of students in the last year.

In May, Christopher Lawrenz, 18, suffered a head injury in a crash just east of the site of Friday's accident. Lawrenz was a passenger in a car driven by Randy Brown, a West senior. Brown turned in front of a semitrailer truck at Highway 59 and Oakdale Drive. Lawrenz recovered from his injuries.

Earlier the same month, Samantha Gillard was severely injured when her car collided with a school bus. Gillard, then 16, attempted to make a left-hand turn into the driveway leading to West High School off Saylesville Road. After being struck by the bus, her Hyundai spun and sideswiped a minivan driven by a 17-year-old boy. Stoplights have been installed in front of the school since the crash.
