Oh...wow. I love this story. Particularly the end. Made me cry!

i think i got a little teary eyed on that one. sniff. what can I say? very sweet, sad.

Oh, wow. Truly haunting. And interesting, I think, to give Josh a little bit more of a reason (however unjustified) for feeling so guilty about Joanie's death. You have to write more Josh!

From a f. hornist herself, this was beautiful.

Ooh, very nice - a sweet and sad story. We've never found out how Josh's sister died, have we? Great introspection - would love to see a follow up after the shooting. Keep writing!
