Schenck said Marian's grandfather told the assembled children they "must not think evil of this man who did this."

Remarkable and admirable. I couldn't manage it.

Better people than I am, I guess. I couldn't do it.

Robert Schenck is and always has been a good man.
I can see why they would trust him.

"And though the massacre caught the horrified attention of the world, there will be no tearful relatives flown to New York to appear on morning TV shows, no pictures of the victims getting their own mournful theme song on CNN, no book deals. For once, there will be dignity."

Amen.

Dear God please help us all to feel this way! Please care for those precious little girls. I am amazed at this, if my daughter was killed, my heart would be black for a long long time.

Even the spiritually clueless msm shows awe and admiration for the Amish, a grove of oaks in a nation of twigs. It doesn't take much to be a "rah-rah Christian" in the good times, but to see the really faithful carrying their burden of suffering in this Christ-like way is a lesson to the rest of us.

Brought a lot of tears to my eyes. So sad and senseless.
God Bless them all.

Compare/contrast to some of the 9/11 victim's families...

I can only pray that one day God grant me the same "faith, strength, and forgiving heart" these people have.

May God Bless them...

A heck of a lot of class and dignity in those simple people, isn't there? I've admired them in the past; I admire them even more, now.

They're just a few miles to my east, and I visit "Amish Country" whenever I can. The Farmers Markets are wonderful.
