18 Years [View all]

I remember exactly where I was and what I was doing when the tragedy in OKC happened.

I had just moved back to Tulsa, and was in my new apartment unpacking. I was focused on getting a lot of the boxes unpacked and put away, as they were stacked everywhere. I had the stereo on and the radio station interrupted with the news. I immediately turned on the TV, and sat glued watching it in horror for several hours.

Finally, I got up and returned to unpacking, but stopped frequently to watch the news.

I couldn't believe such a thing could happen here in Oklahoma, right in the middle of the country. Later, I discovered I knew several people who lost friends and family members that day.

I will always remember that day. Thoughts and prayers to all who lost loved ones in OKC as well as other acts of terrorism.
