Letters to the Editor
Terminally ill child seeks Guiness record
To the Editor:
On July 24, 1990 our family was
shocked with the news of the cruel,
senseless murder of George and
Charmatne (Meyers). Too often we
think these things only happen to
other people. Now this horrible act
has taken two loving individuals who
were parents and grandparents to us.
We must realize that this dreadful
crime can happen to any of us at any
time. We are all the victims of these
cold-blooded murderers because
they take the lives of loved ones that
can never be replaced. We ask that
you help us to not let their needless
deaths be for nothing.
Join with us by insisting on
tougher laws and swift and sure
justice for those who commit such
atrocities. Each and everyone of you
are hard working people. Do you
want your tax dollars spent to house,
clothe and feed people like those
who murdered our parents? We ask
you to help us work to ensure that
our parents attackers and other
murderers are punished for their
crimes.
We realize this is a difficult issue
to think about unless it has affected
your own personal lives. Yet, we ask
you for a moment to consider how
you would feel if someone you love
was taken from you for no reason.
It is hard to imagine the pain and
grief.
Please help us and future victims
of such crimes by writing to those
in our local and state government
who are in the decision-making posi­
tions. Better legislation is needed
which will make penalties and
sentences tougher for criminals.
Please call or write the following
people whose address is: State
