This is just an awful story
Yet more deaths on the anniversary of the 9/11 attacks.
It is making everyone check for where the gas lines are located close to their own homes.
This is going to take them a long time to get everything back to the way it was before.
Thanks for the update Sheila
Terrible just terrible
That girl was at my school, we are all in grief
Unimaginable grief for everyone concerned
I'm thankful that a lot more people didn't die even though it's terrible what did happen
It's still so hard to believe for those of us in the area.
My church is holding a vigil for those who suffered in this incident
We are donating clothes on Monday to the Red Cross.
But Jackey I think the Red Cross wants money more than anything else.
dreadful dreadful dreadful, there are no words to say how terrible it all is
We all thought the next tragedy was likely to be an earthquake, not an explosion or a fire. How can you even prepare for something like this? You cannot.
Got something to say?
