Thank you for printing a truthful account on what has happened not only to my nephew, David Snow, but the pain and anguish my family and I are all going through [“Candles on Elliot Street,” The Commons, June 23].
Andrew Sheets took many victims that night. He has changed all of our outlooks on life, and not in a good way. The world has become a frightening and cruel place, not to be trusted.
Another “gift” from Sheets: My family is going through a nightmare that will never end. Even if Sheets gets the maximum - and there is no guarantee - our beloved David will still be gone, never to see his little girl grow up, never to get married to his fianceé, never to see his family that he loved so much, ever again. His future and everything that could have been have been forever taken.
We wake every single day with the cruel knowledge of how horrifically he was taken, and a black cloud settles over us all. There is no end for us.
