In Memoriam
 

From my 1932 "Songs of Phi Mu" book:

In Memoriam
by Marguerite Thompson Stewart, Upsilon Delta

In sorrow, Lord, we are united here,
In grief for one e'er loyal to our Bond.
In rev'rence deep, in sympathy sincere,
With hearts bowed low, together here we stand.

O God, we ask Thy mercy and Thy love,
To bear our grief and turn it into song.
Oh, lead us yet, and grant us there above
These friends so true, these fellowships so strong.

I've written an email to my chapter about this tragedy and today I received the letter from our national president. I hope the families and friends are doing alright and know that as the month goes by, we will continue to keep their girls in our thoughts are prayers.

LIOB,

Nu President

i thought this was a very nice article about how Western's Phi Mu chapter is dealing with this horrible event.

still daily praying for Phi Mu.....grow together through this tragedy. sounds like that's how these ladies would want it.

Wow, this is so amazing to see how many people have writen. I am sure that their families truely app. it. One of the girls that died was an SAE's little sister. I went to the funneral. It was a 3hour wait for visitation. They has people lined up down the street in the rain. 98 Phi Mus from western were there. They even had a Phi Mu room set aside. Our national President was there consouling the girls even with her mother very ill. There was so many pink carnations in the church it was unreal. Thanks for all the love and support that you have shown their chapter and their families. We truely share an important bond.

I would just like to send our deepest sympathies to the sisters of the Delta Tau chapter. I know that sisters of Phi Mu everywhere are praying for all of you. I certainly will continue to pray for your chapter as you all are grieving the loss of your precious sisters.
