Memorial For Those Lost At Virginia Tech
On Monday, April 16th 2007
Grief struck our Nation on that horrid day
For all of the families and students we pray
Faculty members could not believe
How could this happen who did deceive
Brilliant lives cut short because evil came
No one knew who or what was to blame
Emotions ran high why did so many have to die
With prayer and Our Lords power we said goodbye
Heaven opened the gates and took each inside safely
Angels wrapped their wings and hugged each compassionately
Now we ask to keep each in prayer with God’s love
Each and everyone is home safely in Heaven above

Mine, too! It was sad day for many!
It’s just so overwhelming, isn’t it? My heart is breaking for the victims, their families and friends, and especially the family of the gunman. I can’t imagine the horror they must be feeling. So sad.
What a sadness , Tooty !
