I just finished
Lisa Beamer's book, "Let's Roll!" last night. A hero in her own right, for the Esther-like roll she has taken in this time, thrown as she was, unwillingly, into the position of
interlocuor for her deceased husband, for all the survivors of 9-11, for our nation, and for her children, Lisa Beamer has combined all the stories from various sources that day into a touching, cohesive, page-turning book. What struck me throughout the reading was the realization (over and over again) that Todd and Lisa Beamer's story, and the dozens of lives in their family alone that were affected because of the attack on 9-11, was just one of hundreds of similar stories not only of horrifying loss and devastation, but of heroism, hope, and faith.
Wow, you handed in double homework. A+ and an extra dessert at lunch for you!
