On the recordJuly 14, 2016
It was just another Sunday in December 2006 in West Palm Beach, Florida. Greg Key was in church, with the pastor delivering a sermon--a little sweat on his brow. It was just another Sunday when Greg's cell phone buzzed. He stepped out for a call that changed his life. The voice on the other end told him that his 19-year-old daughter-- the shining light of his life--had been gunned down as the innocent victim of a drive-by shooting. On this ordinary Sunday, like on every other day of the year, 91 families got devastating news that a loved one had been killed by a firearm. Like I said, Mr. Speaker, it was just an ordinary Sunday. ____________________
