Heartbreaking....


It always happens...these stories come out in the wake of these tragedies...




Professor Liviu Librescu, 76, threw himself in front of the shooter when the man attempted to enter his classroom. The Israeli mechanics and engineering lecturer was shot to death, "but all the students lived - because of him," Virginia Tech student Asael Arad - also an Israeli - told Army Radio.


Several of Librescu's other students sent e-mails to his wife, Marlena, telling of how he blocked the gunman's way and saved their lives, said Librescu's son, Joe.


That story of a man who survived the Holocaust...giving his life to save his students....


I'm too choked up to write anymore.
