How very true Demetrios, It was such a tragic event and I was saddened to hear of his death but by his actions he saved the lives of others, it reminded me of a similar story of Maximilian Kolbe who gave his life in a concentration camp so that someone else could live who had a family. They are truly men of God. Tom
