This morning I was listening to The Today Show that was reporting from the campus of Virginia Tech. One of the young men interviewed by Matt Lauer was the brother of a young lady who was shot during the tradegy that took place yesterday on the campus. He spoke about his sister, a beautiful dancer who had just performed the day before in a performance that his family went to see. They showed a picture of a darkhaired beauty, in a wonderful dance position showing a serene face of dancer committed to enjoying her art. Her face had all the promise of a college student at the start of her life, certainly not the last day of her life. Her name,Reema Samaha and she performed with Contempory Dance Ensemble at Virginia Tech. Only 18 years old.
My thoughts and prayers go out to her family and of course, anyone else that was witness to this horrible event. I just wanted to express my sympathy to her family.
