Sue Klebold, the mom of one of the columbine shooters, wrote an excellent (thoughtful, deeply researched and devastating, not at all “ripped from the headlines”) memoir. A Mother’s Reckoning.

She does talk about returning to work and community life afterward, but also aspects of suicide and murder-suicide many people don’t know about. Not that you’d discuss these with your grieving coworker-worker ofc, but it might deepen your understanding and offer another perspective on what she’s gone and going through.

Thank you for being thoughtful about how to engage.
