No words....

There are no words to adequately express the emotions associated with what happened to this good man in St. Johns last week. I have known Vince for his whole life, my Uncle married his Aunt and so in a way, joined our family to the Romero family. This story consumes my thoughts as it does for everyone in St. Johns and from St. Johns. You can't have lived there and not know a Romero or two, they are a great family. Trying to make sense of what happened is hard and I am not sure if it will ever make sense. I pray for Vince's family and the Roman family to be able to someday soon find peace of mind and happiness in life. And for the people of St. Johns to also be able to find that peace. Parents, hug your kids and love them more than ever. I am so glad that my kids don't have to know about this. (until we go to SJ for Thanksgiving at least, I'm sure they will find out somehow when we are there.)
