Thank you for doing this
Thank you for doing this, my heart is with France and all those who lost someone and those who have been terrified. My hope is that some how the world can together solve this violence.
Daughter in Paris but craziness spreads like an epidemic of violence. I’m a mom and have permission to worry even tho she is far from Nice. She is safe, thank God but Paris is still skittish. Too, too sad about Nice and death of a Texas neighbor and son. Very sad for Europe. We must find a way to unite and become one against this terror. Prayers and love to all.
