Our
hearts
filled
with
sorrow
Our
spirits
seem
lost
Such
power in
evil
With
such a
high
cost
Each
life
that was
taken
Is
shattered
and torn
Each
one
we'll
remember
By
spirits
now born
The
tears
that are
falling
Are
gathered
and
saved
In
rivers
of
sadness
That
life has
engraved
We
look at
your
faces
Our
heart
skips a
beat
Each
one of
you
precious
And
so we
repeat
Your
presence
is
gathered
By
hours of past
Now
gathered
with
beauty
These
memories
shall
last
We
hear
your
sweet
laughter
It
echoes
with
love
We
whisper
your
names
As we
look up
above
You
light up
the
darkness
With
flames
that go
on
Your
spark
glows
forever
Bringing
each
dawn
When
night
time has
fallen
The
stars
will
align
Creating
the
beauty
Of lights
you've
designed
Your
road is
now
paved
With
miles
that
remain
For
all you
have
traveled
Your
life not
in vain
The
hours
stay
with us
The
times
that
were
blest
They
echo in
breezes
At
each
heart's
request.

Our hearts are filled
with sorrow for the senseless murder of the
students and
faculty of
Virginia Tech.
There are truly no words that can compensate for
the loss that we have
realized. Each day something tragic that happens
we
ask the question "why"
there is no answer to this. There is no rhyme or
reason for such devastation and
yet we live with it on a daily basis.
Our hearts go out to
all those who have to deal with this on a very
personal
level. To the parents
who lost children, to the wives, and the family
members of
the teachers and to all
of those whose life has been changed drastically
by this
incredible act of evil
that seems to invade our every day life with
such ease.
To the student body of
Virginia Tech we feel your pain and sorrow and
know
that it is very
difficult for all of you to understand why
something like this
happened. To the
faculty we pray for words for you to share with
those
who are so deeply
affected by what happened. The evil that lurks
in life
has truly brought wrath
and sadness to all those who walked the halls of
education in your
midst. What a horrible day this has been for all
of you.
We shall keep you in
our prayers and hope that in some way the memory
of those who were lost
will live on in your spirits and through your
love
each day as you walk
the halls where your friends and mentors no
longer
share their footsteps.
In life their chairs will be empty but you will
gather in your hearts a
place for each of them to stay.
God Bless you and
Deliver Us From Evil.
With great love and
Compassion
