Recently a family near where my aunt lives had a huge fire. The mother lived, but the father and 4 children did not. The mother wrote a letter to the paper and it is completely moving. I warn you it is incredibly sad, but worth the read just as a reminder as to how precious life really is. Here's the link if you'd like to read it.

Re: Sad letter.
I read your description of it Ang and just that is making me tear up. I can't read it either.
