Whole families have perished trying to escape, children have been orphaned as their parents tried to do...

    Tuesday, June 30, 2009 | A Sad story

    Our parents have had the fortune to see their children grow into adults, marry their loved ones and watched the family grow with each grandchild and now great-grandchild that came along. And Ed and I have had the pleasure of seeing our parents live a full and happy life into their old age.
