OT - BOSTON COUSINS PLEASE CHECK IN

[Patti Feinberg]

To our (((Boston Cousins))), I truly hope and pray everyone is fine.
For anyone visiting Boston and/or running in Marathon...
PLEASE CHECK IN.
Dear God, this is reminiscent of when we all checked in after 9/11.
I can't take it....
Be well,

Patti

Hey Patti, I'm fine.  We had to work today so I was in Cambridge, and I live in Medford, so all the chaos is happening miles away from me.

My prayers go out to the injured and their families.

And I pray for PEACE and HEALING.

hugs, Steve

Thanks for the check! Yes  you're right about prayer.... MORE CHECK-INS PLEASE!

A woman who works in the same Y I do (in Wisconsin) ran the marathon, a long-time dream for her.  She was 150 feet away from the blasts.  Fortunately, she is fine - shaken up, but fine.

Prayers  and thoughts go  out to those  hurt and killed in the Boston Marathon.  I  just read that
a 8 yr  old boy lost his life.      How  sad    Love  Anne

MB, I'm not liking that I don't see a response from you.

How about others from the area?

Also, here in Atlanta, there have been 'silent runs' to support our Bostonian Americans. I'm sure most cities had/will have such similar runs.

I had never heard of "Patriot's Day"; sorry it got screwed up

Love,
Patti

Thanks for your concern, Patti, but I don't live near Boston. Well, I live about 50 miles away. But I've been posting on other boards here on the forum, so I'm fine.

My thoughts and prayers are with everyone up in the greater Boston area.  I have such fond memories of visiting Boston over the years, first, with my family as a young kid, and, then, visiting my brother, when he was an undergraduate student at Boston College.  Boston is such a beautiful city and the people of Boston  are wonderful (even if they do root for the "Sox" up there!).

Take care all, your Garden State cousin,

Bob
