After the fire trucks and ambulances came and all of the smoke and fire was gone, I went home to watch the news and find out more information on the weird events that took place earlier. I got into the house and turned on the television to The Wilshire Tower's News Channel. Its basically the only channel I have since I cant afford cable. The headline at the top of the television screen read "Tragedy In Wilshire Towers". The reporter was stating that during the midst of all the fire and smoke, someone died. Their name, Edith E. Evans, the librarian. Throughout all of the fire and smoke, the library was burned down. She was so devistated, that library was her life. I find it very ironic that the library was like her life, and as the library burned down and was destroyed, she was too.
Those thoughts begin to make me think did she kill herself? Was the destruction of the library too much for her to handle? If so, then I dont believe that it was worth it. I did not really know Edith that well because I do not have time to read. The only time I really came in contact with her was when I would go to the library to fill out job applications. She would never really speak that much so I didnt know what kind of person she was. Although I really didnt know her, its always a tragedy that someone dies. Everyone is close to someone, even though their death may not affect you. R.I.P Edith E. Evans
