Oikos University Shooting Victims Obituary

Published by Legacy Remembers on Apr. 2, 2012.
OAKLAND, Calif. (AP) — A nursing student expelled from a small Christian university and upset about being teased over his poor English skills opened fire at the school, going from room to room in a rampage that left six students and a secretary dead, police said Tuesday.

One L. Goh, 43, forced the secretary into a classroom at Oikos University in Oakland on Monday, told people to line up and, when some didn't cooperate, began his shooting spree, police Chief Howard Jordan said.

"It's very, very sad," Jordan said. "We have seven people who didn't deserve to die and three others wounded because someone who couldn't deal with the pressures of life."

How terrible. I can't imagine the trauma and fear all involved were experiencing. I pray for comfort for those survived and the families of those who lost their lives. I can't understand how someone could go that far, and put other people through something so horrific. Lives are forever changed and those who lived, I hope they have a newfound appreciation for their lives. I know I would. My goodness, I just cannot imagine. This is such a scary world to live in sometimes....
