A Moment of Silence

Last Saturday, July 14, 2007; one gun shot was fired outside of Old Chicago in Cheyenne, Wyoming. The bullet, shot from across the street and through a window, missed the patrons, hit and instantly killed Robin Munis, 40, of Cheyenne.

As the story began to unfold, Robin Munis had recently separated from her husband, David Munis, 36. She received a threatening phone call from David the day prior and police began searching for Mr. Munis as their only suspect for the shooting.

David Munis was an expert marksman in the military. There was no criminal record on Mr. Munis.

As the days passed by, the story continued to sit in the headlines of all local newspapers and coverage continued by the local and national TV stations.

David Munis was found Tuesday, July 17, outside of Laramie. Mr. Munis shot himself in the chest and died later that night.

There were many other victims and people who have been devastated by this murder-suicide. The impact has been most felt by the Munis children. With one deliberate action by their father, they lost their mother and a few days later, their father.

Please take a moment to offer a thought, prayer or moment of silence for the innocent bystanders who have lost their whole world as they once knew.

Memorial Funds have been established for her children. Interested individuals can contribute through:

That is really awful Mysti, and thank you for bringing it to our attention. Those poor children. I hope they have lots of good relatives who will take them in and let them know they are loved.
