My Prayers are in Chatsworth

For the last few years I've had the pleasure to work with LA's first responders- the LAFD, the LAPD, and everyone else who runs towards disaster as others run away. A bittersweet sadness and pride came over me as I saw these men and women at their finest, bringing strength to tragedy at the Chatsworth train wreck. My prayers are with the LAPD, having lost a colleague in the accident, with the LAFD, facing the grim work of rescue and recovery, and with all the individuals and families touched by the incident.
