Son dies in Iraq, Mother collapses and dies before funeral

It’s too sad to put in the Pit, so I don’t know where else to put it. I don’t know this family, but their plight has affected me deeply. I’ve been yoyoing between deep sadness and deep anger because their deaths were unnecessary.
The first story is from right after the son, Robert Unruh, died. It includes photos of him and his mother, Karen Unruh-Wahrer.

“Grant to the departed eternal rest. May light perpetual shine upon them.”

Oh my God. There are just no words… :frowning:

Grant them rest, peace and happiness eternal.

If it was too sad to put in the Pit, then why did you post the exact same link in the Pit a mere hour after this one?
