Saturday night a gunman brought death to ten people in our neighboring community of Monterey Park. Ten others were wounded.
This horrific act of devastation occurred as residents of Monterey Park and other local communities were celebrating the eve of the Lunar New Year.
Right now (Sunday evening), we do not know what lunacy motivated a man to kill and injure so many.
Everyone extends our sympathy to the families of those who were murdered. We wish for a speedy and full recovery to all who were hurt.
There will be opportunities to support the victims and their families. Please verify the validity of any online donation site or donation request. (How terrible that we have to warn people to beware of those who will seek to profit from a tragedy.)
