Every year on the anniversary of her son Jordan's shooting, Lucy writes a letter to her son. It's not lost on us that Lucy and everyone else in our country woke up this morning to news of yet another mass shooting in Virginia. Lucy's letter is copied below.

Dear Jordan,

They say that time heals all wounds, but for parents, losing your child is like losing a part of your heart, a part of your soul.

It’s been a decade since I last heard your laugh, and not a day goes by where I don’t daydream about hearing you call for me again.

I wanted to watch you grow up and graduate, fall in love, and start a family of your own.

That's why I made sure the fight for your justice wasn’t left behind in the courtroom, because justice will be the day no parent ever has to bury their child again.

All of our memories together and every bit of love in my heart for you as a mother is why I must carry on, despite those that oppose a safer world for our children.

And that’s why – standing there on the steps to the courthouse – I made a promise to you, to our family, and to the community that raised you, that I would do everything in my power to keep them safe, to keep them healthy, and to fight to prevent our tragedy from reaching others.

Throughout these years, I thought I was the one teaching you, but as I look back more and more, it was you teaching me this entire time – teaching me how to continue the work that God has ordained for our family.

Jordan, thank you for watching out for your mom. Thank you for being on this mission with me, every day, to keep our communities safe.

I always thought you’d be a community advocate or organizer one day, and I couldn’t have asked for a better guardian angel to keep pushing me forward.

Jordan, one day we’ll all be united again, but until then, God’s not through with me. I can’t wait to see where He takes our family.

Forever, your mom,

Lucy
