April 26, 2005

I can hardly believe it's been a year since the Thatcher Hall dorm fire. I can't believe it's been a whole year since Kelly died! But here it is April 2006.

I went to the garden dedication last night. It was really beautiful. All the flowers and the plaque in her honor. I know she never would have guess how much she would mean to so many people. Her death symbolizes so much to the students and community members who experienced that day.

I really find it strange that the sadness I feel now is deeper than last April. Some how her death makes less since to day than it did then. It leaves me asking the questions all over again. Why her? Why then? How? Questions that are not really meant to seek answers, just to be asked.

true. How weird it is? I can't believe it. Just standing there, watching as the fire turned the sky orange on that black sky. Who would have thought Thatcher. Our Thatcher would turn into the world of confusion and choas as it did that day
