This is an extremely sad situation. Martin Richard, the 8-year-old that was killed in the Boston Marathon’s bombing had just crossed the finish-line when he gave his father a hug and then made a decision that ultimately took his life. Martin went back to be with his sister, whose leg was blown off, and mother, who also suffered injuries. The father who continued to walk ahead of his family released a statement. Drop down bottom and see what he had to say.
Bill Richard’s statement:
My dear son Martin has died from injuries sustained in the attack on Boston. My wife and daughter are both recovering from serious injuries. We thank our family and friends, those we know and those we have never met, for their thoughts and prayers. I ask that you continue to pray for my family as we remember Martin. We also ask for your patience and for privacy as we work to simultaneously grieve and recover. Thank you.
So sad. My prayers goes out to all that were involved.
