I live 7 houses down from where this tragedy occured. I was outside with all out other neighbors watching and wondering what had happened. I seen one of the young girls collapse in a friends arms , i cannot imagine how the children will ever get over this awful tragedy , i suppose they wont. Please pray that their mother lives, they have already lost one parent. I never knew of any problems down there, we have been here over 5 years and this neighborhood is an awsome one, this is the only thing tragic that has ever happened. The children are the most important thing i cant say it enough pray pray pray! God will help them,,
