Once Again

Once again our nation…our world…is mired…in a sad and gloomy fog as 11 more people have been massacred in a Pittsburgh synagogue… 11 innocent people praying one minute…the next ceasing to exist 11 innocent people added to a long and growing list. Once again we are filled sorrow…once again our grief we can’t disguise Once again we feel for the families…once again the whole world cries… Yes, once again we’re crying as more of our innocence drifts away because tears are all we have left…when we have no more words to say. Joyce Fienberg, 75 Richard Gottfried, 65 Rose Mallinger, 97 Jerry Rabinowitz, 66 Cecil Rosenthal, 59 David Rosenthal, 54 Bernice Simon, 84 Sylvan Simon, 86, (husband of Bernice) Daniel Stein, 71 Melvin Wax, 88 Irving Younger, 69?
