Oklahoma City - April 19, 1995

I was sitting in my English class, a shy 8th grader, when we were called to the library. I watched the television on the old school cart they had rolled in, terrified of what I was seeing. It may not be on the same scale as September 11th in terms of destruction and precious lives lost, but it was much closer to home, much more real, and just as devastating for the families and friends that lost loved ones.

We will never forget.
