6-year-old Jack Pinto was one of the victims of the horrific shooting that took place in Newtown, CT last Friday. If that wasn’t heartbreaking enough, his 6-year-old best friend, John wrote him a “goodbye” letter. The letter was accompanied by two pictures of the two boys and read. Children as young as 5-years-old were in attendance of the funeral wearing grey Sandy Hook Elementary School shirts. Sadly, these children are going to be forever scared from the tragedy they witnessed. See the letter in the gallery above. Julie A.
