Saying Goodbye

One-sixth of the town of Cass Lake, MN turned out today to bid a tearful farewell to Louie Bisson, a local resident who was beaten to death by two teens in a senseless act of violence.

Legally blind since birth – most likely a result of the same gene that caused him to lack skin pigment (albinoism) – Louie struggled to lead a productive life – but he never quit trying. “He had far greater insight into love and human caring than many people ever will,” His sister, Pam Parmenter wrote. “We will miss you, Lou. Love, your family.”

I have difficulty understanding how two young boys could be that hate-filled or disrespectful of life.
