When you read about the individuals, it hits home harder than just 25 unknown miners. I used to make sales calls in Beckley when I was with Cannon Mills. The Island Creek Coal Co. stores carried our Santa Cruz towels. And Hecks too. I know that region pretty well. It's heartbreaking.
My Dad used have to go to Beckley when he worked in the mines. He told me there was nothing to do in Beckley. I always laughed when he had to go thier.

Love the pic of that cat. Is the cat in Hawaii, it sure isn't in Beckley.
