Another method to offer condolences...

Monday's tragedy continues to impact the area. The newspaper's online website, www.lancasteronline.com continues it's coverage, and has now provided a link to an online condolence book for the victims at http://local.lancasteronline.com/4/26440.

For more information about the Amish, their beliefs, and their culture, there is a great basic summary available through the county visitor's bureau at http://www.padutchcountry.com/our_world/the_amish.asp

Thanks to our county Youth Services Coordinator, Renee Christansen, we've found a link to a bibliography from the American Library Association that offers suggestions on books related to death and tragedies (that was first compiled after the 2001 attacks.)
