Virginia Tech

I sat in my office and watched as the events of yesterday morning unfolded on the news and could do nothing. We all just watched as CNN, Fox, and MSNBC reported and we were all shocked as the death toll kept going up.

Panic struck me as the toll went into the twenties, do any of our kids from shul attend V-Tech? I could only think of one young man for sure that attended. He had just returned from a year in Iraq and we all thought he was finally safe. Now this. We got word from his family this morning that he is safe and wasn't hurt. I felt relieved, but then I felt guilty for feeling that way, knowing what 32 other families had lost.

Our hearts and prayers go out to the victims of this atrocity and their families.
