This just knocked the wind right out of me. I don't know what to say, but I'm sorry for those boys and the families and community who lost them. You wrote this beautifully, by the way.

When I hear of such tragedies I now of course think of the mothers and the loss of their "daves", but your poignant thoughts on the young men are very moving indeed. Your connection is very real, thank you for a beautiful post. Oh, and please hug Dave for me. I’ve been under a rock down here apparently, and had not heard.

As you said, those people who were killed could have been Dave. It's too bad that sometimes it seems it takes a tragedy to remind us that we are all in this life together. Very touching.

Your words are haunting and fitting and achingly perfect. My thoughts are with all of you, so many miles away.

It is terribly sad, and horrible, and all of those words that are used to describe the unthinkable. Lives cut short.... it never gets any easier to bear that reality.
