An image of Virginia Tech

As many people have been doing, I’ve been following the news of the unbelievable tragedy at Virginia Tech. What can one say about it? What has hit home most for me was something I saw just today. One of the victims, Ryan Clark, was a senior member of the Virginia Tech marching band, the Marching Virginians. I can’t imagine losing someone from the HMB while I was a member.

I watched some of the convocation ceremony that was just held at VT and the one image that stood out for me was just a short shot of some students in the large audience. In the middle of other students in their VT sweatshirts and t-shirts sat a guy with his head bowed, dressed in his VT marching band uniform. What a beautiful tribute to a friend.
