I can only imagine the shock, grief, heartbreak of all those people who lost loved ones, or who have loved ones in hospital, after the awful actions of one man, in Cumbria yesterday.

They will probably never really know why that man turned into a killer, I feel sad also for his sons and family and whatever will they tell that new little grandchild, if the news is correct, who should have grown up with a loving grandfather and instead has a killer for a relative.

May those who lost their lives rest in peace and may their loved ones find support from those around them.

I can only echo your elequent words,a tragedy for everyone.

The family will need help and support as will all involved. I can only offer a prayer for them all and we can only hold them in our hearts.

Condolences to all those poor families grieving the loss of a loved one.

So very, very sad, and surreal.

May they R.I.P.

my heart goes out to all of those involved - particularly the killer's mother as she has now lost two sons - one killed by the other - how can you ever recover from that
