"On Friday, the students, their two younger siblings and their mother, Farhana, will stand by the grave of Mr. Ali, a 61-year-old grocery store owner who was shot dead in a robbery in North Lauderdale this week. Members of the area’s Bangladeshi community will say prayers. His coffin will be lowered into the ground."

My heart goes out to the family. To lose a father to gun violence after two of their children survived the Parkland Valentine Day Massacre is simply horrible. May people in their community reach out to them to provide the comfort they are going to need.

Sympathy to the family.
