Ashes to Ashes, Dust to Dust

Six years and four months (to the day), the building where the massacre occurred at Marjory Stoneman HS is finally being demolished.

It is sad that it has taken this long to remove this building. They had to wait for the trial which took entirely too long. Then, certain politicians had to trapse through the building for photo opps. The entire community has PTSD whenever helicopters fly over.

I was surprised how sad I became as I left the area. Many people surrounded the campus today. A large rainbow appeared last night!

May God watch over these families.

Quite a sad week. The children that survived Sandy Hook graduated high school this week.

I remember this too well :(

Not something I know about but it was obviously a terrible thing that has affected a whole community.

@carole_sandford on Valentine’s Day 2018, a former student gained access to his old high school and killed 14 students and 3 teachers. Took four years to get him to trial, where he got a life sentence.

So sad. I saw the story about the demolition on the national news tonight. You added some interesting information.
