Quote du jour/Dennis Lehane
It’s hard to imagine any people more inspiring than all those people who dashed across Boylston Street within seconds of the first explosion, and rushed to the aid of the injured.

We are all broken hearted. So sad, yet as you say...so proud of the people who responded.

ReplyDeleteThere were so many scenes and stories of bravery and kindness, far outnumbering the evil done, but our hearts still ache for those who lost family and friends, and for those gravely injured.
ReplyDeleteThank you all for taking the time to write.
