A sad day

I found out yesterday that a girl I dated right after my mission was murdered. The murder actually happened almost two years ago but I didn't find out about it until last night. I don't get a chance to watch the news much especially when I am at school but for some reason I decided to record it last night and watch it later. As I was getting ready for bed and watching the evening's news cast I was shocked to see the story about her unsolved murder. Even though I hadn't talked to her in years I was extremely sad to hear that she had been killed. She was such a nice and caring person I just can't even believe that someone would want to hurt her, let alone kill her. I've been thinking all last night and today about the times we had together. If I hadn't moved to Utah who knows what might have happened. If I had kept in better contact with her maybe somehow she wouldn't have been in the situation that led to her death. I realize that you can't keep up with everyone you ever know and that some people no matter how good of friends you might have been at one time will slip out of your life. It just makes me sad that such a great person would have their life cut short like that. I just hope that even though the murder is currently unsolved that someday some evidence will come forward to bring her killer to justice and provide some closure to Nori's family and friends.
