- MESSAGE TO THE MAYOR –
August 1 , 2017
Mayor Megan Barry
l Public Square, Suite 100
Nashville, TN 37201
Dear Mayor Barry,
We were all shocked and deeply saddened to hear the news of your son Max’s death on Sunday. Please accept our most heart-felt condolences for your loss.
The shock of your loss has sparked feelings of sadness, guilt, fear, and anger in us. Many of us have felt not only sadness for your family but also a renewed sadness for those we have lost before. We have struggled with guilt that we could not prevent the loss of such a young man. Fear for our own children has shaken us. And we have felt anger that life should be so cruel.
Yet, as we waited to visit you and Bruce on Monday and as your friends congregated, another sense began to take hold. The people of Nashville arrived to show an unshakeable sense of compassion and love for you and Bruce. This morning, Max’s friends shared that sense of love for him as we celebrated his life. And as we heard the story of Max’s life, your and Bruce’s love for Max moved us all.
May this sense of love and compassion which we have seen in Nashville since Sunday, surround you and Bruce in the coming days. We offer our love and support to you both as you go forth.
Sincerely,
The Vice Mayor and Metropolitan Council
On behalf of the Citizens of Metropolitan
Nashville and Davidson County
