Default Thoughts And Prayers For Our Neighbors

It's been reported that the grandparents of Martin Richard, the little boy who was killed in the Boston Marathon attack live here in The Villages. He was the boy who was pictured only a few days before he was killed holding a sign he had made..."No More Hurting People".

The grief of the family and our neighbors must be unimaginable. I think a moment of inflection and prayer for the boy and his family is something we all should consider.

Amen.

And please, if you know of any other way we can help this family in any way, please let us know.

Default Much sadness and many prayers

Since the bombing and hearing about this little boy losing his life and the tragic injuries sustained by his sister and mother, I have had moments of tears and sadness. I can't seem to get past what the grandparents are going through and how life has changed for this young family. They will be in my thoughts and prayers for a long time to come. I hope they can recover from this life altering event.

Every time I looked at the picture on the front page of the newspaper of that sweet little boy, I got teary-eyed. God bless them all.

I agree. As Graciegirl also wrote, if there is anything else we can do beside our thoughts and prayers, someone should let us know.
