Armbruster Recovery Coordinator Virginia Tech Office of Recovery & Support 1700 Kraft Drive, Building VII, Suite 1100 Blacksburg, VA 24061 Dear Ms. Armbruster: Megan, Enclosed are two CDs of the song "33 Gone" that we have been discussing over the last couple of months. This song, written by me, and performed by The Fabulous Dialtones, is dedicated to the memory of the victims of last year's campus tragedy of April 16, 2007. We have been hard at work recording and polishing this over the last several weeks in hopes of delivering it to you in time for use during the Expressions of Remembrance on April 16, 2008. I am pleased to have learned that you were impressed by the rough mix I sent last week, and believe you will find this version much improved. Our plans include releasing a press release on 4/14 to selected DC area media and reporters, as well as a wire release that should get additional coverage. Also, an email will go out to our band distribution list. Both messages will refer readers to our web site to hear the song and will encourage people to click on the Hokie Spirit Foundation web site to make donations. We feel the email will be particularly effective as we will urge our recipients to forward the message to their own networks of friends and associates, particularly those with affiliations to Virginia Tech. We are contemplating the sale of CDs of the song at future band performances, with a share of the proceeds to be forwarded to the foundation fund, and a smaller share held in an effort to recoup some of our production costs. Should the band or I (in some other capacity) include "33 Gone" in any future CD that includes other songs, I hope to be able to continue to apportion a share of the proceeds of that project to Virginia Tech. Please stay in touch and use the song as you see fit. Thanks for your support and encouragement to continue with and finish this project. Sincerely, [Signature] Anthony V.

Woke up to the mornin' news And once again it's filled with tragedy On a college campus in Virginia Evil went on another spree Now we're all trying to make sense of the senseless With hindsight and many second guesses What could have been done to stop the evil one Or maybe it's time we teach the words of Jesus He said love the Lord your God with all your heart And love your sister and brother Love the one true God with all your soul, mind, and strength And love one another Some believe we need more control And some the right programs But the fact of the matter It all begins within the heart of a man We can choose to treat the symptoms Or go for the disease Just try to slow the war Or set our sights on peace We'll see change across this land when we follow the commands That Jesus gave to you and me He said love the Lord your God with all your heart And love your sister and brother Love the one true God with all your soul, mind, and strength And love one another Do not be overcome by evil But overcome evil with good This is possible when we learn to love as we should Love as we should Love the Lord your God with all your heart And love your sister and brother Love the one true God with all your soul, mind, and strength And love one another Love one another Love one another Love God and love one another Original Format If the image is of an object, state the type of object, such as painting, sculpture, paper, photo, and additional data audio/wav Duration Length of time involved (seconds, minutes, hours, days, class periods, etc.) 00:04:40 Bit Rate/Frequency Rate at which bits are transferred (i.e. 96 kbit/s would be FM quality audio) 1411.2 kbps Viewer Select which type of viewer is needed for the files AV Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

There’s a lone wailing in Virginia Where a nation’s hearts beat as one For the day in Blacksburg, Virginia Where one man took so many with a gun It’s a quiet, friendly place, Blacksburg, Virginia Where the mountains and the rivers all run free But it only takes one man with access to gun And a hatred for all humanity How does a hollow heart get wounded How can we recognize the signs When the worlds all connected now So many wires tying up the lines Can’t we bring ourselves to go and stop a crime Why do so many have to die before we do What we should have done before Why do so many have to cry before we see the writing on the wall Our nation learns a lesson about dying When it happens on its own, Cherry told me Now on some fallen shore We’re in someone else’s war But crying for its own young's destiny Why do so many have to die before we do What we should have done before Why do so many have to cry before we see the writing on the wall They say the right to bear arms is important To protect yourself from others bearing arms But the ones who say this aren’t yet broken By seeing their loved ones made into pawns Don’t they know about that love That the loss of them diminishes us all Don’t they see or are their hearts empty There's enough death around without their war America, America please listen Your children embrace you in the sun The hopes of generations lie hanging by a thread At the mercy of anyone with a gun Don’t let them kill your children one by one No mercy, no mercy for the gun There’s a lone wailing in Virginia Where a nation's hearts beat as one For the day in Blacksburg, Virginia Where one man took so many with a gun Don’t let them kill your children one by one No mercy, no mercy for the gun Original Format If the image is of an object, state the type of object, such as painting, sculpture, paper, photo, and additional data audio/wav Bit Rate/Frequency Rate at which bits are transferred (i.e. 96 kbit/s would be FM quality audio) 1411.2 kbps Viewer Select which type of viewer is needed for the files AV Duration Length of time involved (seconds, minutes, hours, days, class periods, etc.) 00:05:02 Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

[News Broadcast] Tens of thousands of students, faculty, and family members gathered yesterday at Virginia Tech to mourn the victims of Monday’s school massacre that left 33 people dead. It was the deadliest school shooting in U.S. history. Somewhere a mother is identifying the body of her only son A catholic, she crosses herself and begs the chosen one For strength to reduce the shiv inside, her soul goes numb Because there’s no bringing him back When the cameras close new shows are done Channel surfers listen lives are memorialized The father misses his daughter and the more that he tries To remember the times that were good, the more that he cries The less he can sleep ‘cause every time he closes his eyes He sees the fear in her heart, his heart skippin’ a beat His stomach turns and his pain reaches so deep he can’t eat In a hospital bed rest a boy who thinks it should have been him Images he carrys hurt far worse than a bullet through skin And he’s pretty sure he’d trade what’s infected his mind For all his luck plus the two inches between the lead and his spine And a brother calls a brother to tell him they’ve lost their mother Thirty-two voices sing along each of them different from the others [News Broadcast] The gunman has not yet been identified, but the university had just announced he was a student at the school who lived in the dorms. He shot dead two students at the dormitory shortly after seven o’clock Monday morning. Two hours later the gunman attacked an academic building. He shot dead thirty students and professors then killed himself. A father reconsiders his decision to make his home in the land of opportunity ‘Cause the opportunities shown, made him believe it’s different He left his baby on her own and now he carries a casket, in his heart he feels alone A son calls his father a hero then he hangs up the phone Warrior blood in his veins from the pain that his father’d known What monsters had tried to do half a century in the past The frustrated youth had done, the son didn’t have to ask Another family lay in ruins A mother with desperation to ponder as she folded her boy's flag A soldier's death, no medal of honor What do you tell a parent who put they had into raising their kids And watched them go astray and couldn’t explain why they did Who tried to give them what they had and couldn’t change how they lived And hate themself for the fact they took away others kids How do ease their pain, help them come to terms with their choices They all sing the same song with 32 different voices [News Broadcast] I’m really at a loss for words to explain or to understand the carnage that has visited our campus. I know no other- no other way to speak about this than to tell you what we know. Let me do that now. It is now confirmed that we have 31 deaths from the Norris Hall, including the gunman. This song is dedicated to all of the families and victims involved in the shooting at Virginia Tech on April 16, 2007 and all other victims of gun violence all over the world. May you all rest in peace.

We have included a copy of our song on CD and a printout of the lyrics for your review. (BEST ENJOYED LOUD) We would like you to place this song somewhere on the VA TECH Memorial website. We played around with the tune for over a year but couldn't find the right words for the song. We knew we wanted it to be called "Dream Flying" and wanted the overall theme to be related to the title, but for some reason, the words were not forthcoming. Since I had been a student at VA Tech and Lewis' brothers were graduates, we both had a very real connection to Blacksburg and had spent a lot of time there. When we heard about the shootings, it seemed to be a catalyst for the words of the song to come together. We think of it as a song of hope that was inspired by a tragic event at a place that we both love. We don't explicitly reference any particular event, but feel that our song captures a "feeling" that we both shared after this terrible tragedy. The song is copyrighted, but we are giving the VA TECH "We Remember" website permission to play the song and post the lyrics as it sees fit. Sincerely, Robert W. Grimm & Lewis R.

Office of Recovery and Support Virginia Tech Research Building #7 (0907) 1700 Kraft Drive, Suite 1100 Blacksburg, VA 24061 January 8, 2008 Thank you for everything you have done and we hope that there is a place for our song somewhere in the memorial. We have included a copy of our song on CD and a printout of the lyrics for your review. (BEST ENJOYED LOUD) We would like you to place this song somewhere on the VA TECH Memorial website. We played around with the tune for over a year but couldn't find the right words for the song. We knew we wanted it to be called "Dream Flying" and wanted the overall theme to be related to the title, but for some reason, the words were not forthcoming. Since I had been a student at VA Tech and Lewis' brothers were graduates, we both had a very real connection to Blacksburg and had spent a lot of time there. When we heard about the shootings, it seemed to be a catalyst for the words of the song to come together. We think of it as a song of hope that was inspired by a tragic event at a place that we both love. We don't explicitly reference any particular event, but feel that our song captures a "feeling" that we both shared after this terrible tragedy. The song is copyrighted, but we are giving the VA TECH "We Remember" website permission to play the song and post the lyrics as it sees fit. Sincerely, Robert W. Grimm & Lewis R.

I would like you to share it with the families and friends of the victims by whatever means possible. If appropriate, I would like you to share it with the school at large. I'm in the process of adding the voices of several students from Christopher Newport University and the keyboards of a VT alumnus to this song. I believe it will greatly enhance it. But it will take some time, and I wanted you and the victims' families and friends to have an opportunity to hear "The Children of April" as soon as possible. Thank you for your time.

LUV CNU Attachments: pat2077723873 Dear Vice President Hikes, "Children of April" is a song written in tribute to the victims of April 16, 2007. Our musical group, LUV CNU, based at Christopher Newport University, was formed especially to record this song. We offer it as a gift to Virginia Tech and the university and college communities at large. A copy of the song is attached to this message, although three versions can be heard and mp3s downloaded for free at www.myspace.com/childrenofapril. One of those versions has no vocals so that it can be used as a backtrack for other vocalists at future tributes. Our hope is that "Children of April" will bring some comfort to those who need it, while honoring all those who so richly deserve it. All the best, LUV CNU Children of April They came from everywhere, from places far and wide, Most to learn and some to teach, all to share the love inside. They went to a mountain school, amid the pines and whippoorwills. They wore orange and maroon, in this city on a hill. Youth dreaming of future days, while their teachers guided them. One teacher saw the Holocaust, just to see it come again, Erupting on an April morn, amidst a swirling wind, A tortured mind bearing arms, an attempt to lock them in. But the children of April can never be locked in. They cheer at every game. They ride the swirling wind. The children of April remain in God's embrace. They are in the better hugs. They march in every May. The children of April still cheer at every game. Send messages of love, As we speak out their names. The children of April remain in God's embrace. They are in the better hugs. They march in every May. 5/16/2007 Page 2 of 2 Words and Music by Frank Jordan Arrangement by LUV CNU copyright 2007 Frank L.

So much so, one of our band members and fellow songwriter's had to react to this. We wanted to write a song that did justice to what had happened but in a way as to show hope for a better day. Please listen to the CD sample, look at the artwork and lyrics. Visit our website to read the whole story as to how Mike Clapper wrote the lyrics to this. We had already written a song for our troops but had not recorded it. We went ahead and recorded both songs on Friday May 11th. I hope these songs will pay tribute to both the students that are gone and the students and everyone else that have survived. We will gladly collect and forward proceeds from any sales of this CD to the fund that you have established. This CD is not yet released in hard copy but the digital songs are released on internet radio stations We are just a local band called KUN-TAJUS (contagious) from Bedford, Pa and have been playing for 43 years (we're almost as old as the Beatles and the Rolling Stones so we all have children of college age) We have other songs that we have written and recorded, plus other finished songs that are not yet recorded. We are 5 hrs. North of Blacksburg so maybe someday we could come down and play a concert for the students.

I am a senior at Lee County High School in Beattyville, Kentucky. First let me extend my condolences to your school, staff, students, and the families of the victims of the events of April 16, 2007. Also, I want you to know that I am not sending you this for my own recognition or personal gain. I wrote the enclosed song because I feel like the words convey the feelings of many. Its been said the music is the universal language. It can be used for many purposes; to laugh, to cry, to ponder, and so on. Songs can help others speak, even though they didn't write the words. That's why songs can never be truly owned. Sure, they can be copyrighted, stamped with a name, or attributed to an artist, but songs that people relate to are owned by the people they help. Hopefully you can use this song in memorial of those who lost their lives, those who lost sons, daughters, aunts, uncles, brothers, sisters, mentors, and friends. I would love to have an opportunity to sing this song for your school and the families of those lost. If you would allow me to come to your school to play this song, it would be an honor. Thank you for your time. lan Noe RECEIVED MAR 0? 2008 Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

Steger, My name is Whitney Olsen, I am a 20 year old college student attending Utah Valley State College. I know that this is not the first letter you have received with messages relating towards your school and the atrocity that happened in April and that you probably still receive many a day but I hope you will take the time to read mine. In April 2007 I was attending Utah State University. It was a cold morning and I was watching the news eating a bowl of cereal when I first heard that there had been a shooting at your school. I watched in silence as the broad casters spoke. I could not believe it. I went to my classes that day un able to take my thoughts way from what had happened. Over the next few days I read countless articles on it, watched the news and talked to my friends about it. Even though I live thousands of miles away I was very very struck by what had happened. I wanted to help. I wanted to some how let your students know that even though I did not know them and they did not know me, it did not matter. I was a fellow university student and my heart reached out to them in their time of need. Enclosed with this letter you will find my C.D. I am a singer/song writer and I knew I had to write a song for your school and some how get it there after I heard what had happened. Thanks to the wonderful opportunity I had to fly to Orlando, Florida and perform in front of an audience of 5,000 I was able to record some songs including the one dedicated to Virginia Tech. It has always been my hope and wish that some how I would get to share it with the students of your school. My heart was touched by the many people who walked up to me after I sang it in Florida, sharing with me their connections to your school. Some said they would show the song to the kids who attended there. I hope they get to hear it, but I thought that by sending a copy to you, you could some how help me in getting it into the hands of your students. The song is titled "Our Prayer". I have many copies of the CD if you are interested in helping me spread this song to your students. It was the only gift I could offer being so far away but I hope the words will touch your heart. Thank you so much for your time and God bless. Whitney Olsen Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

I am a high school senior in Elyria, Ohio. On Monday I heard about the tragic events that occurred at your college. I did not know what to say after hearing this because I am currently the lead character in a play about school violence. I actually play the character who has killed five of his classmates and his parents, so when I heard about this on the news, I felt so many different things that I wasn't even sure that I wanted to do the play any more. It gave me a new outlook on my character and honestly scared me a lot. The irony of the whole situation was/is a little overwhelming to me. First I would just like to say that you have my every condolence and I do hope that everything will be ok for everyone who was a victim and for everyone else who were not direct victims but are still victims in the end of Monday's events. It's strange because for some reason I keep feeling the need to say that I am sorry even though I know that I never did anything and never would do anything of this nature. Maybe it's just the character from my play talking. Maybe I feel that because I'm portraying a teen who has a lot of problems and makes bad decisions, that I am somehow related to what happened even though I know that I am not. I do not honestly know. In addition to acting, I also write music. After Monday I felt that I needed to write a song for all of you. I wrote it and recorded it in my room. The recording doesn't sound professional because I don't have good software for recording things and the mic that I use is not very good. I was not able to find a professional to record me. I did my best however to make the song sound good and I really hope that you like it. The song is called Yesterday. The song is dedicated to everyone at Virginia Tech and everyone somehow connected to Virginia Tech. I hope you like it. Sincerely, Jimmy Pearson Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

I work as a wood worker, and mechanic in Montana. To express our love, grief and prayers for your loss, I wrote this song I hope might be of comfort. Yesterday I sang it at Pilgrim Congregational Church in Bozeman, Montana and the congregation sang the chorus. It was heart felt as we sent our prayers. This is that recording along with the original recording of the song. I hope it can be of comfort to others. You are welcome to make copies of this CD or words and share them if you feel it appropriate with families, students or however would be the best use. Feel free to contact me anytime if I can be of help. I have already sent an e-mail with the word attachment. Thank you for your time and help. Our prayers are with you...
