Remembering Newtown Ct. today

To the Families of Sandy Hook School and the Newtown Community:

The day this happened, I felt compelled to do 'something'. I knew the world would respond in a most profound way. Using my passion for the arts and the people who I know would feel the same way I contacted the Newtown Ct. Community. Several months later the result was a unique opportunity. I was fortunate to gather a handful of friends and put together an event to express to this community how my Broadway friends felt about you all. On Sept. 19, 2012 this came to fruition. We brought "Broadway Sings for Newtown", a fundraising concert to benefit the Healing Arts Foundation. This was by far, the most humbling, rewarding experience of my life. I will not soon forget the wonderful, resilient people I met in this community. My hope is that you continue to press on with the courage you display each and every day, accept the support you have been given, knowing that you WILL one day be reunited with your loved ones who are counting on your continued faith and endurance. In behalf of me and my Broadway friends who took part in this amazing, heartfelt night of joyful music, we salute you and pray for you. Much love, Pati Buehler

PS:Thanks to BWW's Gen Rafter-Keddy for your exceptional work as always, and your friendship!

The best way to honor and remember them is by not shining a spotlight on them during this difficult time. I would recommend PB ENT to do the same. Peace and Love to all those in Newtown.
