Green Hornet - My daughter is posting Lauren's vigil on her facebook and we will be wearing green tomorrow in her memory. Please know that we are still thinking of you.

I'm wearing green and have been thinking of Lauren all day.

I mowed the yard and there were FIVE butterflies in our yard at the same time.

Green Hornet - My daughter is posting Lauren's vigil on her facebook and we will be wearing green tomorrow in her memory. Please know that we are still thinking of you.

Thank you, and please thank her for me.

The vigil was beautiful. A lot of tears, a lot of heartbreak, but most of all, a lot of bonding in her memory. I think she'd want that.

The biggest heartwarmer for me was seeing the piece of ****'s ex-wife and the young lady whom he committed the original heinous act on that put his sorry, pathetic in jail to begin with standing hand in hand, and embracing. Seeing that cretin's CHILDREN there, and listening to his 9-year old daughter offer her hand and heart to Lauren's family. I think Lauren would be smiling seeing this.

Then there were butterflies.. Lots and lots of butterflies.

It's been an emotional roller coaster of a ride. However, yesterday allowed us the opportunity to clear our minds a bit.

Belinda is so right, Lauren is "one of ours". The innocent are ours to care for and to mourn.

Bless you.

GH, hugs to you. The grace of the universe is subtle. You need to be still to feel it and you did just that.

A 36-year-old Sheraden man accused of stabbing, killing and trying to dismember a 14-year-old girl last year pleaded guilty Thursday to second-degree murder in exchange for a sentence of life in prison without parole...

The East Liberty girl disappeared July 7, after telling a friend she was going to a man's house to do clerical work, said Deputy District Attorney Mark Tranquilli. Police found her body wrapped in garbage bags by the entrance of Langley High School on July 13. She had been stabbed 21 times, Mr. Tranquilli said.
