The remarkable Abdallah and Sakr families share their heart-breaking story following the tragic death of Antony, Angelina, Sienna and Veronique in a February car accident in Sydney.

We have marveled at the strength and dignity they have shown in forgiving the man accused of being the drunk driver responsible for their childrens’ death. In the midst of tragedy, there is a message of hope with the recovery of Charbel Kassass, one of the children seriously injured in the accident.

An inspiring story. A story of four children killed on their way to buy ice cream. A group of seven carefree siblings and cousins, enjoying a moment of childhood independence as they walked to local shops on a summer evening. There was laughter and jokes as they took turns on a bicycle – when without warning, the unthinkable.
