Newtown, Connecticut.

Author: Manuel R. CortezRodas


On Friday, the 14th of December 2012, in the Newtown, Connecticut, at Sandy Hook Elementary School, there were 26 individuals whose time in life came to an end too soon, in a place where education takes place, in order to prepare for the future.  6 educators, who were at work educating others, gave their lives in sacrifice.  20 children, who were at school getting educated, were sacrificed.

We acknowledge the loss of life has has taken place in a school, in a town, in a state, in a nation, in the world.  We must now sacrifice ourselves to support, honor, and respect these 26 individuals whose lives came to an end in a school.  We take a moment of silence as we read the following:
