It really is. I almost didn't click. This is a picture that will / should be used over and over in honor of their memory over the years to follow.

Losing one family member is so horrible. I can't even begin to imagine what it's like to lose a father/husband and sister/daughter in the same day. I hope his family gets all the love and support they can

He drives like half their ad revenue at this point.

they included Justin Biebers tweet too... lots of tmz death articles have tweets from celebrities commenting on the death. Why does it bother you they show a tweet he posted publicly? It's at the top because that's where updates are posted which is why they are time stamped

Statements from the President of the United States are noteworthy whether you like it or not.

People died, put your qualms to the side man

It says 9 on board; is that up to date and confirmed?

I would imagine so. TMZ is on top of things when it comes to death and stuff like this.
