Monday Morning Blues

Greeting my students in the hallway this morning, I heard two unexpected statements.
Statement 1: My 6-year old cousin died of a heart attack this weekend.
Statement 2: Did you hear about the kid that got stabbed in the neck?  He is my cousin's friend.  My brother and cousin were in that group walking home.  My cousin saw the whole thing.

I never had an experience like either of these when I was young.
