SANDY HOOK...ONE YEAR LATER

Tomorrow marks the one year anniversary of the Sandy Hook massacre where 20 young children and 6 adults were slaughtered by a deranged individual. Take a moment to have a good thought for the victims...and...their familes.

Great advice BK---thanks for the reminder.

This has been front and center in the national news lately. I'm sure it'll go down in history as one of those events so horrific its nearly unimaginable.

PBS has aired two programs about the event itself as well as the life of the perpetrator. From that its easier to see how mental health is an urgent concern these days.

Peace to all who were taken and those who remain today.

On mnf pregame show on espn they had a great story of how 1 of the 26 children was a ravens fan, and how the ravens have helped that family. And volunteers, mostly firefighters, build playgrounds and dedicate each to one child.

Very wonderful story to come out of the awful events of that day.
