"I have no thoughts of 'why me' but a feeling of what can be done to unite our great community and leave a lasting positive legacy in place of this tragedy. It's obvious that there is much more to be done. As I re-focus on things of importance I'm filled with newfound energy and the enthusiasm to make a difference."
