Hi pink- I too, have questions. It's for that reason (I dont want my own questions seeming insensitive to my family) and for the privacy of my family, that I have chosen to respond the way I have.
I should explain - my nephew is actually my cousin. He calls me and my brothers Aunt and Uncle(s) because he's the baby of the family (all the cousins are over the age of 20). It's been that way since he was adopted so we always refer to each other as such (aunt and nephew). Sorry that was confusing... I always refer to him as my nephew.
They still live in Sandy Hook. Right down in the center of town - less than a 10 min walk from the school. When I lived there, that's the house I lived in as well. The family is sad and devastated, having known so many of the victims and families. And having something like that happen just a few blocks from your house is unnerving regardless. For the sake of their son, they are just trying to get back into any bit of normalcy they can.
Yes, our friend's sons grew up with the Lanza boys. My husband remembers them at a few of the boys birthday parties, but nothing specific, other than remembering there were brothers named Adam and Ryan there. Im not sure if or when our friend's sons lost contact with Adam. I would have to ask. I know one of his sons is still in contact with Ryan, because he was texting Ryan when he saw it all on the news (when they were still naming Ryan as the shooter) and Ryan was texting him saying "I just got out of work, what's going on, it wasnt me - I didnt kill anyone." Our friend's sons both still live in Newtown.
I havent been up to Sandy Hook since before the shooting, despite keeping in close contact with my family. As far as I know, Sandy Hook Hair company is still open and as for the name, I think they were just trying to go with something catchy, original and cute. I have to say, I am terribly picky about letting people cut my hair and even when I lived in Sandy Hook, I would still go back to Stamford to have my hair cut by my own hair dresser. Though SHH Co wasn't open then.
I will answer any questions I can. Like I said, I have questions of my own. That's why Im here. To find the real truth and help debunk the crazy theories
