This is a true story of how my grand children and myself dealt with a senseless shooting and the thoughts and actions of those involved. I hope this helps other parents and grandparents deal with tragedy in their lives.

Triple shooting at I-40 bar leaves one dead and two injured.
It felt like my heart was going to explode in my chest. It definitely just got worse. I called GG on my way into the School and let her know what I had found out and asked her to call the police to find out where my son was. I continued to search google while I waited for my Granddaughter in the school office and found that one of the boys was deceased, one was in critical condition and one was stable. I thought to myself which one of these boys was my son? Tears welled up in my eyes as I realized something terrible had happened to Ryan. I looked up and told the school receptionist that I believed one of those boys that was shot at the Tool Shed was my son. Desperately trying to hold back tears I told her the condition of the three young men. About that time my phone rang and it was GG giving me the number of a detective who was handling the homicide investigation. I called the detective, introduced myself and listened. He started with your son is going to be okay (this is where it gets better) he has been shot twice, once in the chest and once in the neck
