It is with sadness that I write today about five lives lost in two recent separate but equally tragic events. Three died in a helicopter crash and two, including the assailant, during a domestic violence situation... want to acknowledge the everyday heroes, such as the spouse and children of Schneider; the loved ones and co-workers near and far of Bonilla and Hines; and, yes, those who will grieve Sylte — and his actions.
