I have been following you for a while now but just recently I have been reading more of your entries. I found your blog because my mother mentioned about 3 years ago that John's sister was an amazing blogger and I should check it out. I went to school with John and will never forget the feeling I felt when I heard the news. My heart dropped, I was speechless and in shock. How could this happen to someone my age, at my school, and in such an unfortunate way. I am truly sorry and I wanted to let you know how much I loved getting to know your brother. He was an amazing young man who always knew how to make me laugh. Anyway the reason I am writing you is because another accident occurred this Sunday. I attend Florida State and early Sunday morning a girl was accidentally shot when her twin sister's boyfriend was showing a new piece to his shotgun. Once again I had the same feelings rush to my body. I was scared, worried, upset, and speechless. I wanted to tell you that because right when I heard the news about Ashley Cowie's death I thought of John. I thought of how supportive the Tampa community was and how everyone celebrated his life. Hours after the shooting became publicized, facebook became flooded with support and prayers. It was truly beautiful. The next day everyone wore purple and changed their facebook profiles to show support to not only her immediate family but also her Chi Omega family. Thank you for touching me in such a way that I felt not alone and comforted. -Amanda Hi Jenna,

My sister died at 19 as well in a freak accident (running herself over with her own car in our driveway). I hate when people say the "know" how you feel, but I have been there. This took me right back. I am so incredibly sorry and sad for you and your family. uhh.. jenna.. i never post but this gave me chills.

But I wanted to let you know that you and your family are in my prayers. I am confident that your community of friends, family and your relationship with God can help you through this. <3 There are no words to comfort you right now, I am sure.
