Dear Howard,
On behalf of all members of Canadian Parents Of Murdered Children and Survivors of Homicide Victims (CPOMC), I am writing to offer our heart-felt condolences to you and your fellow Americans following the horrific massacre in Newtown, Connecticut. Such a senseless, tragedy brings terrible memories flooding back to survivors of homicide victims. I can only imagine the appalling anguish the parents and loved ones of those poor victims are enduring; especially, as the Christmas season is upon us.
It is times like these when one realizes that the work of POMC is so important. As you well know, dealing with the aftermath of a homicide is not something that can easily be overcome. The grief process is extremely laborious, difficult and does not follow a predictable course. It is a process, which affects each person differently. I am certain that the support and understanding of POMC will be extremely vital in helping the families and friends of the Newtown murder victims.
If there is anything CPOMC can do to help please let us know.
Sincerely;
(Original signed by)
Yvonne Harvey
Chair
