to the last one - I am so sorry for your loss, Mayor Bowser, family, and friends.

I have seen an estimated 500K disburse from Washington DC's Mall after a 4th of July celebration. To imagine them all deceased and all those grieving their loss via this pandemic painfully hurts my heart - so many preventable and the impact staggering.
