I KNOW MY VOLUNTEER ALREADY HAS IDEAS IN HER MIND AND IT WOULD BE A GOOD THING IF THEY WHERE CLEARED

Barbara Payne I too am a mother of a Moroccan peace corps volunteer and I would like to express my sympathies to So-Youn's parents and all of her friends and fellow PCV friends.

Please say a prayer for all of the PCV and their families. Thank you.
