n Thank you for reporting the death of Michael Robertson (“Student dies after fall from dorm window,” Jan. 22, p. 1) with both fact and sensitivity. It is clear that this young man was well loved and respected. My deepest sympathy goes out to Robertson’s family and friends as I urge them to remember his life, spirit and smile.
I lost my sister two years ago in the same type of accident when she fell from a Boston roof deck. It has been a personal focus on her life, rather than her death, that calms me.
