The journey of the last 25 years has really tested my faith.

Palm Sunday, 1990.

I'm in my choir robe at the back of my church where I still sing in the choir today.

This glorious music is playing.

The church is full.

Everyone is singing.

It's this joyful procession.

And the last thing I expected was to have the church secretary come to me and put her hand on my arm and say, you have a phone call.

And that's when my heart started to pound because I thought something's wrong, really wrong.

And it was my father on the phone.

And the first thing he said to me is that Nancy and Richard have been killed.

And he said someone killed them.

This happy young couple with everything to live for, with no enemies, with no reason that anyone in the world should want to take their lives.

And right before she died, she drew this message in her own blood.

By his body, there's the shape of a heart and the letter U. Love you.

My name is Jean Bishop, and I'm the sister of Nancy Bishop Langert and the sister-in-law of Richard Langert.

Who could have looked at Nancy's eyes, the beautiful light shining there, and pulled the trigger?

Why?

Why them?

Why Nancy and Richard Langer?
