"So very sorry for your loss again brother. It's a road we all must take. Stand strong my brother. The burden you bear is a hard one, but we are here for you," one user posted.

"My condolences. You must be broken inside. I know you will stay strong for your kids, but inside you are hurting. I'm so sorry for your loss, words can't express all I feel, but know that people all over the world are sending you strength," another commented.
