It's strange that just a few weeks ago, I remembered you stopping @ Tang and leaving your vehicle unlocked in order to take a bathroom break. At the time, I simply thought the worst that could happen was some MIT student play a prank on you for leaving your vehicle. I never imagined this. I didn't get to know you, but I admire your trust in our community. Unfortunately, someone decided to play upon that trust.

I hope you are at peace, hiking the mountains of the world. :)

I hope that you find some comfort in the knowledge that so many of us, all over the world are remembering your Sean.

Here in London we paused yesterday to pay our respects to the memory of those lost, and in solidarity with the survivors. I thought of the young man, and his brothers and sisters who serve and protect us all. I am very sorry for your loss.

3000 miles and almost 30 years away from the Institute, my feelings at the loss of Officer Collier have reminded me that my membership in the MIT community is unbreakable. My thoughts and prayers go to his family, friends and everyone in the community who have been touched, as I was, by his tragic death.
