@Shuttrbug74, I’m not convince it is anything to do with “these days”. Horrific atrocities span the ages I’m afraid. But so do good things and I’m of the belief that they still outweigh the evil in this world.

Any help you can give the trust goes towards reinforcing that good. And that can never be a bad thing.

I just came upon your blog via singleparentdad’s blog and saw this post while reading back some. I truely do not understand what the world is coming to these days. And I really do not think there is a punishment to “fit” the crime. Actually I feel thats the case for most crimes now a days.

Unfortunately I live way the heck over here in the States and can’t participate in the walk with you guys. I sincerely wish I could. I will definitely be thinking of you guys and will do my best to make a donation shortly.

My God, how do things like that happen? I echo your feelings towards the killer.

But best of luck to all of you on your trek, and especially to you in bringing it all together. You’re a good man, Charlie Brown.

Hiya Dan, I wanted to pop back and say I have sent a ‘great read’ award your way over at http://www.gotyourhandsfull.com – A great read to me is someone who challenges and makes you think. Through this post you have written here some genuine good will come and you can’t get much ‘greater’ than that. Good luck to you, Linda.

It still makes me cry today.
Ryan was only a little older than Joseph was when he died. Our ‘comfort’ is that Joseph died in his sleep, knowing he was loved, and without fear. Sadly the Hawkins family do not even have that comfort.
People think that Neil and I are amazing and, who knows, maybe we are (we don’t feel amazing though!). We in turn look at people like Val, Donna and all those who miss Ryan and think well, what do we think? We admire them.
Our experiences in this life shape us – for better or for worse – hopefully even with the vilest tragedy, something positive can be taken from it.
Ryan did not deserve to die. He did not deserve a violent death at the hands of his father. His mother did not do anything to deserve a future of images and memories that must be nearly unbearable to deal with.
Val, Donna and others have managed to survive the months and years since losing Ryan. Not only that, but they have raised a heck of a lot of money for us.
For this, and in Ryan’s memory, we are grateful.

Wow. I have no words. Agreed that the death sentence would be far too lenient.
