Did anyone here about this? My heart sank when I read this because Matt lives in NYC. I don't know how near or far he lives from this. I hope he is okay. :unsure: Please pray that he is and also pray for those effected by this tragedy.

What a tragedy that was. It was confirmed that 6 construction workers killed and 1 lady from Florida came here for St. Patrick's parade, got killed also. I remembered one part that I read from the paper yesterday that gave me such a big lump in my throat, was from a guy that said, he was in his daughter's room, when the crane was falling, he actually saw the 2 construction workers inside the crane screamming, falling passing his daughter's window, he saw their doomed faces. It was such a helpless feeling at that moment.

Marilyn, the accident happened in the city (Manhattan), I'm in Queens, so I'm no where near the site. My prayers go out to all the loved ones of the deceased.

Thanks, Beckie.

I saw it in the newspaper the other day and I can't believe what happened. Prayers to those who passed and their loved ones too.

OMG, how horrifying Lily. Those poor men and all the others effected. And you know that will haunt that poor man forever.

Also you're welcome.

They arrested the city inspector for falsifying records. He did not do the inspections he claimed to have done, then had to clean up the records so it looks like he did. He's only going to get four years in jail.

What a shame, but I'm not suprised. This is not the first and won't be the last. That inspector should be charged with murder. mad

I can't believe he got only four years? I wonder how many years he really will serve? I agree that he should be charged with manslaughter.

Spring is finally here, the lovely pink blooms on the "spray" tree outside my window are gone leaving a beautiful willow.
