Dallas Green's Granddaughter

Well, the thread on yesterday's shootings in Tucson is gone (not surprising), but I just wanted to mention something I learned on the news just now. The 9-year-old girl who was killed was the granddaughter of Dallas Green, former manager of the Phillies and Cubs.

Sad . The irony is she was born on Sept 11th ,2001. Her father had mentioned that in an interview . He said she was born on a day of tragedy and obvious she died on a day of tragedy.

God Bless her Soul

I saw the name and thought "that name sounds familiar".
How sad, born on Sept. 11 then died on a day of tragedy. I am a nurse in L&D and I worked that night. People were crying, not wanting their babies to be born that day. I wonder what kind of mixed emotions they had the day she was born. My heart breaks for their loss.

There is a spot of 'good' news for many of us about the shooter.

The attorney chosen to represent him is the same attorney that represented Timothy McVeigh.

ABC News is reporting that Gwyneth Paltrow is a cousin of the congresswoman Rep. Gabrielle Giffords and that "One Tree Hill" actress Sophia Bush is the second cousin of Christina Green, the 9-year-old who was killed.

Christina Green's Dad is a scout for the LA Dodgers. Most of Phoenix's media websites have up to date information and interviews with family members.
