And the poor little boy. I felt like he was sometimes trying to hide behind that mask.

So tragic. Never imagined so many criminals and deranged people. Nothing can replace him.

(362 posts)8. When my brother died
... many years ago (he was 25) - for weeks after, I would cry at stories in the paper involving someone's death. I KNEW what their loved ones were going through, their feeling of senseless sudden loss - I felt it too. And I feel it now. Very sad.

(12,181 posts)9. Perhaps I'm completely wrong here, but I'm going to say it anyway.
I know people are interested and empathetic, but do we really need a minute-by-minute chronicle of the family and their pain and sorrow? I find it to be on the voyeuristic and intrusive side. Look how intimate and personal that picture is. If that were my family, I wouldn't want to share it with the world.
