The Notre Dame Family Is Hurting This Morning

Billy Meckling (Denver, CO) a 21 year-old engineering major -- a Notre Dame student-athlete set to graduate tomorrow -- died early this morning after falling off the roof of the Joyce Athletic Convocation Center.

Please say a prayer today for the Meckling family and friends.  Billy's twin brother Peter attends UC-San Diego and their younger sister Megan is a student at Notre Dame.

What was expected to be one of the great weekends in a family's life has turned into something I can't quite fathom as a parent.   So sad...
