we're still awaiting the announcement of the full list of all those who were killed and wounded. but i have found out already that two of my friends were victims in the shooting here at Virginia Tech.
he was amazing, smart and hilarious. his smile was amazing and his laugh could capture entire rooms. i was just hanging out with him this past Saturday. i still can't believe he's really gone.
also, one of the girls on my staff, caitlin, was a victim as well. she was one of the sweetest, kindest people i know. i wish i could say more but the words are just escaping me right now. all i want to get across really is that these two people were amazing, brilliant and had so much life in them it is hard to understand why they were taken.
like a lot of people here i'm still trying to process everything that's going on. i am so sad that these two amazing people were taken. and my heart aches because i know that there are thirty other families who have lost wonderful sons, daughters, brothers, sisters and parents.
please pray for virginia tech, everyone here and everyone who has been affected by this tragedy.
thank you for your kindness, your concern and most especially your prayers.
