God be with this man who bravely went out on his own. I hope the fact you found him and gave the family closure outweighs the trauma of finding his body!

Kids always need life jacket this is so heartbreaking

[@patriciafoster3347]

A River? No life jacket? So sorry…..

Life Jackets. I make my little ones wear life jackets near water. It helps w peace of mind to know if they accidentally fall in they'll stay afloat.

[@cheryl5994]

REST IN PEACE LIL MAN, GOD BLESS YOU. ❤️🙏🏼❤️

[@pinkrose5796]

PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE make sure your kids are wearing life vests if they're near the river, lake, WATER!! Also rules that no matter what , do not go in the WATER! Glad his body was found but also know that this scenario will be played out many more times this summer and fall. EVERYONE thinks this will never happen to their family but unfortunately it does😭😭😭😭😭

[@nahdeeyuh1548]

why wasn't the boy wearing a life vest???

[@CruzReviews_Opinions]

Something sounds fishy...

Habit is formed bit by bit. If we fail to pay attention to the formation of our habits, we may act unwisely in critical moments.

Observation: This is a kayaker's dream. Kinda like those storm chaser idiots hoping to get a smashed windshield someday.

[@somnuswaltz5586]

Too bad. That boy could've made a delicious meal for the various animals under the water

[@patriciafoster3347]

NBC NEWS. I’m unsubscribing. Because you interviewed Amber Heard.
