Each night I watch the news and wonder: where are the names of the dead who are not celebrities or from the "nice" parts of town? Who stands for their lives and the losses their families suffer? You honor each person you name in your blog by the simple act of naming them. We care about so few so much these days and yet we lose so many who need our concern much more. By acknowledging the lost and murdered you lift this ugly act to memory. No one should die in anonymity. Your blog is an example we could all follow.

Thank you.
