Standing moment of silence for members who have been laid off

We had a standing moment of silence for those that have received layoff notices in the last few weeks.  I couldn't help tearing up a little bit as I thought about the 13 members back home who are struggling to understand what has happened to them.

My husband and I are both teachers and we have 4 small children - I have NO idea what we would do if one or both of us got a layoff notice.  

My heart goes out to all members who are struggling right now!
