Thirty-nine days
have passed...
:32:14
since we lost
our thirty-nine loved ones...
:32:17
friends, and teachers.
:32:20
As each day passes...
:32:22
without a determining cause
for the accident...
:32:26
we ask ourselves, "Why?"
:32:30
"Ecclesiastes" tells us...
:32:34
"Man no more knows
his own time...
:32:37
"than fish taken
in the fatal net...
:32:41
"or birds trapped in the snare.
:32:44
"Like these,
the children of men caught...
:32:48
"when the time falls
suddenly upon them."
:32:52
And so,
before we can heal...
:32:56
before we escape the presence
of death and time...
:33:01
we must mourn
and celebrate theirs...
:33:05
with this memorial.
