They also shared a poem titled The Contradiction by Clare Pollard.

Some parts of the verse read: “The absence contradicts itself: the missing conjures what we miss. I cannot hold you, yet I do: please let me hold you in my head and where you are now, hold me too.”

    This tragedy pulls at the heart strings even all these years later. There is no closure and I can’t imagine how that lovely little family copes.
    With all my heart I long and pray for them to have closure.

      Should they be punished for eternity?

    It is a horrible , senseless tragedy , and throwing the blame around does not serve any purpose! Is it something that most parents would do? Who knows? These people were at a well known vacation Resort who never dreamed in a million years that their Family would not be safe !!! Where were the Security measures ? Was it too much to expect that these measure would be provided to honest paying vacationers?
    My opinion: Someone dropped the Ball & total neglect was the catalyst here ! No one could ever have predicted such a senseless tragedy! Was this an act of poor judgment? If only……If only……
    God Bless all who are impacted & prayers for healing .🙏🏻
