I hope it's appropriate to have a single thread to record this sad news. Thank you Kate and Sam for letting us know.

Oh what a horror, Kate.
That's just unspeakably terrible.
I had a friend who was killed in Paris two years ago when a truck hit her bicycle.
Very very tragic.

This is devastating news. Amy already has a lot on her plate raising two children, one with special needs. Does anyone know, by the way, how old the children are? Feel free to PM me...
