As the one-year anniversary of the 416 Fire nears, my heart continues to break for the loss of our precious dog due to the fire and for those who have endured similar loss in life and property.
It is my understanding that the investigation has been done for some time and the report is completed. What I don’t understand is why it is taking so long for the report to be made public and the responsible party be named. Without such, there will never be closure for so many who have lost so much.
Recently, I am most impressed with Boeing chief executive Dennis Muilenburg publicly apologizing and taking responsibility for the tragic loss of 346 lives in crashes of Boeing 737 Max 8 aircraft in Indonesia and Ethiopia. Incredibly, this heartfelt admission, with ramifications beyond our 416, comes only weeks after the tragedies – unlike our eleven-month vigil of waiting and waiting.
The question begs, why is it taking us so long to have closure to the 416?
It is beyond time!
