I grew up in Mendham with Alex and was blessed to know him and his family. He was one of a kind and very special to all who knew him.

I was a student at SU when this happened and knew students who were on the flight.

It's the perfect place to honor the students and families and friends involved. No brainer!

This tragedy struck my high school classmates and I, as we lost Alex plus 2 other classmates, in the crash and nearly lost a few more who had changes in plans. Putting this sculpture into a better venue for viewing and reflection by many would be quite an honor to the victims and their families. With the ties to SU, there seems no better place.

Syracuse is the right and perfect place for this.

Alex Lowenstein was a friend of mine from high school. He and the rest of the victims deserve to have a permanent memorial at SU.

I can't forget Lockerbie. I had recently returned from my own European study abroad experience and to think of the joy on that plane - snuffed out. Thank you for putting this together.

Class of '86 Saw this exhibit when on the Syracuse campus years ago and it was incredibly moving. It belongs there.

I'm a parent who has lost a child and I see myself in all of these faces. Please keep it because we must always remember out loved ones who have died.

Beautiful sculpture! Needs to be a permanent reminder of how intolerance of others views and beliefs can lead to so much pain and loss!

The grief we feel IS the same, amidst our differences and merits as much or more attention than other parts of the spectrum of emotion as it is the facet given the least permission to exist!

I'm a Lockerbie Scholar who flies out to start my journey in America tomorrow (Sunday 23rd August) and I for one couldn't be more up for seeing something so magnificent. Look Back, Act forward.
