Strong little guy, I'm 31 and I don't think I'd be able to get it together enough so soon to talk the media if I lost even one member.

1. Heartbreaking
He is a very strong young man. So much loss at such a young age, so very sad.

4. I saw that kid on the evening news. He was amazing, under the circumstances.
My heart goes out to him.

6. Yeah, I hope they find him a good place to live
Hopefully with people he knows. Someone to give him a comforting, familiar hug when he needs it.

7. He's numb
I went through much the same thing when my dad died. Took me two months before it finally really hit me. And when it did it was absolutely unbareable.

I was in my early 30's when he died... I can't imagine how much more devistating it would have been where I still just a kid.

His whole family... man oh geez oh man, I just can't fathom how horrendous that would be. Lord have mercy, that poor dear boy.

8. Yeah, doesn't even have grandpa or grandma
As I said, I just hope he gets someone familiar that can help him through all this.
