Tragic death of ward member Amy Candland

I didn't know about this until last night at our presidency meeting since we don't have TV and we only get the Sunday and Thursday newspaper, but fellow ward member Amy Candland was murdered by her nephew and it's been all over the news this last week.
Here is her obituary: http://ads.heraldextra.com/articles/2010/02/24/obituaries/355087.txt

For more details of her death, you can read these following news articles (but be forewarned, it might be more information than you want to know... unless you are like me and watch a lot of CSI and Law & Order and are already desensitized to these kind of stories)

    I am very sorry for your loss.

    Damien Candland is innocent until proven guilty. His trial has not even begun and he just entered a plea of not guilty, asserting his innocence. Please do not say "...was murdered by her nephew" definitively like that, it is not an appropriate treatment of the accused in America.

    Naivete will get you nowhere.
