“It is not possible to describe how unfairly and how cruelly they have been taken from us. Our world is a darker place because they have gone and we request that we may be left to grieve in peace and that our privacy is respected.

“We would just like to say thank you to the community for their support and thoughts, the police for their compassion in dealing with us and to family and close friends for helping us navigate our way through this difficult time.”
