I think it would have hit the local news if their daughter had been hurt. I'm still worried. Dear A___ is a free spirit and gentle soul. I'm sure she is emotionally wrecked. I can't wait to hug them all.

5. I wish I were, dear.

At least my dog, Nick-Nick, agrees with you.

3. Praying for them...

I can't imagine what a parent is going through right now. God bless. (And I'm not even religious)

4. When you get the chance, give 'm a hug from a grouchy old phart from Oklahoma.

:-)

One of the victims is from Okla...not near here and nobody I knew but it still hurts.

6. I saw some parents on the news who drove four hours to be with their two daughters

at Virginia Tech. I hope your neighbors are just feeling the need to be with their daughter and help her emotionally after such a traumatic day.

8. That's them .. exactly. Tight Catholic family. Extremely good people.

Like I posted last night, the dad is a gastroenterologist (MD) and the mom is a pediatric oral surgeon (DMD). They are great neighbors.
