A Day of Remembrance

Today, as an alumnus of Virginia Tech, my thoughts and prayers go out to the families of the 32 victims of the tragic massacre in Blacksburg two years ago on Apr. 16, 2007. Today, I seek to honor the memory of those who died in this tragedy in our own backyard that both shocked and changed the world.

On this somber anniversary, I am reminded that, in this troubled world, LIFE, in all its preciousness, can be taken away in an instant. Life's frailty demands that we place our lives in God's care and control completely, try to live each moment fully, and love and serve one another freely. God bless.
