Our 20 year old grandson was killed yesterday

Post by NAM VET »

In our family's grief, I need to share the terrible news that a twin grandson, Connor, 20, was killed in a skiing accident at Vail yesterday. Somehow, an expert skier, he hit a tree, and died before he could be taken to the hospital. I know that some of you have likewise had similar tragedies in your own families, and in a sense, many of you are part of my family too. I appreciate your condolences and comfort in this time of sadness.
