Look they may be getting some benefit for it but they probably deserve it. I'm sure they'd happily give it back a million times over to have their kids back. Imagine losing 1 of your kids then imagine losing 3 ffs

 

[The DoggFather]

God bless them and give them strength.

I hope the boys lift and win for the angels and their families.

 

[The DoggFather]

PS thank you mods

 

[DinkumDog]

Great initiative.
Really admire this family with what they faced and how they chose to move forward.
Happy the Dogs are behind this too.
With all the crap we see every day it’s nice to see some good on display in the community.

Amazing family. Too good for words.

 

[dhoo8450]

Fantastic stuff. This man and his family are an absolute inspiration.

 

[Natboy]

I couldn’t be as forgiving as that family are. Great people

 

[Apex Cedar]

Why isn’t such a story all over the media ? Fucken scums always pushing negativity. This is an amazing initiative and I am really proud to be a Bulldog with initiatives like this done by the club

This is awesome work by the club building the Bulldog community on great principles, The media more into selling fear and hate these days mate.

 

[Dingo]

This man is an inspiration.

I couldn’t be as forgiving as that family are. Great people

Hard. I couldn't on face value. I'd want to kill him and would be trying whatever I could to make that happen.
But then the other children and cousins see the bad example and live it.
The strength and conviction Danny and family has is incredible.

 

[bulldog]

God bless them and give them strength.

That man and his family have far more than me, strength that is, I don't think I could face what they had to and come out with such a perspective.

 

[alchemist]

a bigger man than I could ever be

 

[Jarrad El Hickey]

Glad the club has gotten behind this, a horrific tragedy has happened to a beautiful family puts things in perspective

 

[dogwhisperer]

I’d like to also congratulate the help Danny and his family have received from all the Priests, Deacons, Monks and Nuns of the Maronite Catholic Church of Sydney. Danny is a man of faith, he has strong foundations, a traditional upbringing with strong roots embedded in his faith. Good on you Danny, you’re an inspiration to many and a living example of Christ on earth.

“Come to me, all who labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you, and learn from me; for I am gentle and lowly in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light.” (Matthew 11:28-31)

 

[DaBulldog]

What an inspiration to everyone and anyone that can’t forgive.

 

[MOVE.80]

These days even family members struggle to forgive each other over petty shit.

This man forgave a complete stranger that was responsible for the murders of his children.

I can’t even describe how much of an inspiration and a hero he is.

 

[John Matrix]

God Bless them all, everytime I see Danny, his wife and kids it hits me hard the amount of pain and sorrow they went through and to then come out and forgive..that's something special.

They truly are a example for the rest of, I hope the dogs lift and give them a something to be proud of.

 

[InGusWeTrust]

Yep, it's unthinkable going through something like they have. I've been through some really difficult shit, but losing 3 kids at once is just unimaginable. To turn it around into something positive, that can help other people is commendable and inspiring.
