      I don't know if this is the same teacher or not but I heard on the news that a college professor teacher died. He was a survivor of the Holocost and it is so unbeliveable that he died by a shooting in a college. He must have been a honorable man to care that much for his students. He definitely is a hero for many people.

      So sorry for the lost.
      Sending hugs, Trishann

          Unfortunately this is going to be the norm for the next few days, hearing of people who know a victim or knows someone who knows a victim, etc.
          Regardless of how its affecting someone, its still so incredibly sad.
          I'm here in VA surrounded by VT graduates, students, etc; 2 of the deceased are from my immediate area.
          The whole thing is beyond comprehension, to think that someone had reached a point in their life where they felt it was a rational decision to destroy the lives of so many people. So incredibly sad.

                Debbie, My heart goes out to the Ontario family of the professor. My prayer is that we find a way to recognize when help is needed for violators before it's too late, and we find a way to bring up the children without all the anger that is so present these days. suebee
