I can't overstate the generosity and kindness of all the people I've come in contact with.
Something that helped me was hearing from a fellow by the name of Tom Grace. He had been shot at Kent State in 1970, and I was there, too.
He wrote and asked if I was the Randy Gardner who had been at Kent State, and gave a phone number. We talked for a long time, and it was very comforting.
He's just a really good person, and I think it helped me resolve some of my feelings.
Randy Gardner, 61, was shot in the foot. He was in the crowd but escaped injury during another tragic shooting - when four students were killed by the Ohio National Guard at Kent State University in 1970.
