I know of no of no words that can ease the agony of such a needless loss of 
innocent lives, nor can I understand the makings of such a cowardly act. I 
can only offer my condolences and hope that with the help of god and caring 
hearts that some of the pain of such a great loss can somehow be lessened.

God bless
