So tragic and sad...having lived in CO for graduate school and a good friend of mine grew up and lives in Aurora, it hits a little bit closer to home for me. Also pisses me off too, the mentality of these mass killers overly self absorbed with a lack of conscience for others, and the opportunity they have to get firearms so easily and mastermind an attack, rig an apartment (and possibly a university campus) with explosives...for what? He hit some rough patches in his PhD program? So what better way to deal with it than trying to try and copycat a comic book character psychopath? Grrrr...I knew about what happened since yesterday morning, but only now in the wee morning hours am getting a chance to read about the whole thing. My prayers go out to those that lost family members in this senseless violence, so heartbreaking. :(

Dearest friends , it is with incredible sadness that I post the loss of my youngest nephew John T. Larimer USN. He was a victim of the Aurora Colorado movie theater tragedy. John was only 27 with an incredible life waiting for him. He will be remembered by a large close family and countless friends. John had an incredible mind, a rapier wit, and quiet gentleness that will be greatly missed by all who knew him. RIP dear one.
