    I can’t begin to imagine the pain this family is in. My prayers are with them all. My thoughts are with the driver. I hope the family is supporting him and keeping him from doing something rash to himself.

    The family is devastated. It was totally an accident. This man loved this little one more than himself as did the rest of the family. Praying for my friends and sending love their way.
