We had lived in the neighborhood, one or two houses away from this family before this tragedy happened. When I was younger, I knew the kids and became friends with them. I remember that I heard bangs and just assumed it was someone kicking a wall, because my little sister would often do that. But, when we woke up the next morning to go to school, there were police officers everywhere and my parents would not tell me why. After a few months I got to go visit the two kids, they were doing okay. But, I do not think there is really a way to be okay when both of your parents are now deceased.
